Oddly enough, removing the alloc_pages() check didn't do anything to
text on a NUMA=y config, either: 

dave@kernel:~/work/mhp-build$ size i386-numaq-sparse.?/vmlinux
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
3460792	 449336	1626112	5536240	 5479f0	i386-numaq-sparse.0/vmlinux
3460792	 449336	1626112	5536240	 5479f0	i386-numaq-sparse.1/vmlinux
3460776	 449336	1626112	5536224	 5479e0	i386-numaq-sparse.2/vmlinux

Here's bloatmeter from removing the alloc_pages_node() check:
