[PATCH] mm: __count_immobile_pages make sure the node is online

From: Michal Hocko
Date: Thu Jan 12 2012 - 04:19:04 EST


page_zone requires to have an online node otherwise we are accessing
NULL NODE_DATA. This is not an issue at the moment because node_zones
are located at the structure beginning but this might change in the
future so better be careful about that.
