Christoph said he will ack this patch if remove the change of MAX_NUMNODES (see below),
so I add him directly as Acked-by in this revised patch. And also, I got review
comments from Matt for v1 and changed the patch accordingly.

Is it a violation of the rule? if so, I'm sorry, actually not quite clear with the rule.

See Section 14 of Documentation/SubmittingPatches. You should never add tags unless they came from the said person. The ACKs from Andi is fine, the one from Christoph is borderline but OK and the one from Matt is _not_ OK.

I can fix those up but I'll wait from an explicit ACK from Christoph first.
