Well yes.

We'll be needing some tabs there.

Unrelatedly, I'm struggling a bit with bootmem_arch_preferred_node(). 
It's only defined if CONFIG_X86_32=y && CONFIG_NEED_MULTIPLE_NODES=y,
but it gets called if CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM=y.

Is this correct, logical and as simple as we can make it??

x86_32 numa is the only setter of HAVE_ARCH_BOOTMEM.  I don't know why
this arch has a strict preference/requirement(?) for bootmem on node
0.

I found this mail from Yinghai

  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123614990906256&w=2

where he says that it expects all bootmem on node zero but with the
current code and alloc_arch_preferred_bootmem() failing, we could fall
back to another node.  Won't this break?  Yinghai?

Otherwise, could we perhaps use something as simple as this?

not sure it is the same problem. the fix was in mainline already.

any reason to kill alloc_arch_preferred_bootmem?

    x86: fix bootmem cross node for 32bit numa
    
    Impact: fix panic on system 2g x4 sockets
    
    Found one system with 4 sockets and every sockets has 2g can not boot
    with numa32 because boot mem is crossing nodes.
    
    So try to have numa version of setup_bootmem_allocator().
