With regards to the sysdata conversion: Riku says he cannot test new
kernel. I haven't heard anything from Andy Whitcroft. It passes all of
my tests and what we have now is obviously broken... I think we should
put the fix in.

Strongly agreed. It overall fixes bugs that existing _before_ the sysdata stuff went in.

It was clear the NUMA node was /not initialized/ in all cases, and I think it's quite unfair to revert the sysdata stuff because of pre-existing bugs (that we are fixing right now anyway).
