why use enabled nodes?

numa_alloc_distance already have calculated. with numa_nodes_parsed and numa_meminfo

        /* size the new table and allocate it */
        nodes_parsed = numa_nodes_parsed;
        numa_nodemask_from_meminfo(&nodes_parsed, &numa_meminfo);

        for_each_node_mask(i, nodes_parsed)
                cnt = i;
        cnt++;
