--- Comment #1 from ap@zip.com.au ---
I've done a bit more poking around with kernel 4.9.

It appears that enabling NUMA on the guest kernel but /not/ using it (ie I've
not configured numa use via libvirt in qemu) is enough to fix this. The kernel
gets the lowered memory on reboot and on boot.

Is this how it is meant to function or is this still a bug?
