I tried this with today's -next, the above lines gave compilation error.
Moved them below into HAVE_MEMBLOCK_NODE_MAP and tested it on ARM64.
I don't see the previous backtraces. Let me know if that's correct or
you can post a version that compiles correctly and I can give a try.

Thanks. I'll include the below and shall add your tested-by:, OK?


Yes this is the exact change I tested. Also I retested your latest patch
set with today's -next. So,
