    That is a decent cleanup all by itself. You might want to break it out.
    Take a look at the patches I just sent out. They do some similar things
    to the same code.

    This shouldn't be necessary. Again, take a look at my discontig
    separation patches and see if what I did works for you here.

    Ewwwwww :) No real need to put new function in a big #ifdef like that.
    Can you just create a new file for NUMA emulation?

    Geez. We should probably just do those in the Kconfig files. Would
    look much simpler. But, that's a patch for another day. This is fine
    by itself.
