The issue I see is that this is a dangerous wrapper for pfn_to_nid() that is absolutely not obvious. The old second user on the memory removal path was completely buggy. IMHO nobody should be reusing that function. But it looks like a general âsafe wrapper to get a nidâ - itâs not.
How can we make that more obvious instead?
