Yup, sorry about that. Unfortunately fixing that gets into a small problem
with the definition of pfn_to_nid. I've had a small patch pending for ages
to clean up that mess anyway, so now is probably the right time to push it.

pfn_to_nid patch follows, and I'll send the (rejigged) original patch in
a follow-up email. Andrew - I'm pretty sure this works fine but could you
possibly test it in -mm for a bit?

Thanks,

M.

--------------------------------

Makes sure pfn_to_nid is defined for all combinations of subarches,
and that it's defined before it's used so we don't run into implicit
declaration problems.
