Please split this into two separate patches, as they are doing two

they need to applied together, otherwise all pci_dev numa_node will be
change to device_add to -1 after pci_device_add.


Also, what kind of performance issues have you seen with this patch in
place? As your previous patches were incorrect, I am guessing that you
are not able to test this?
forcedeth on second node. without this patch in addition to
get_mpbus_to_node patch, the numa_node is always 0.


LBsuse91AMD64:/sys/devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:08.0 # cat numa_node
1
LBsuse91AMD64:/sys/devices/pci0000:80/0000:80:08.0 # cat net/eth2/numa_node
1

and after initialization

gart_map_single is used all the time via netdev_alloc_skb for forcedth.
