Will this one do?

commit 99b9c43cfb18a8e2222e9ef80b04a5c3e1dad254

[m68k]      For m68k, N_NORMAL_MEMORY represents all nodes that have 
present memory
       since it does not support HIGHMEM.  This patch sets the bit at 
the time
       node_present_pages has been set by free_area_init_node.
       At the time the node is brought online, the the node state would 
have to
       be done unconditionally since information about present memory 
has not yet
       been recorded.
             
       If N_NORMAL_MEMORY is not accurate, slub may encounter errors 
since it
       uses this nodemask to setup per-cache kmem_cache_node data 
structures.

        This pach is an alternative to the one proposed by David 
Rientjes <rientjes@xxxxxxxxxx>
        attempting to set node state immediately when bringing the node 
online.
