Subject: Re: [RFC Patch V1 07/30] mm: Use cpu_to_mem()/numa_mem_id() to support memoryless node
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2014 11:16:53 +0800	[thread overview]

Hi Tejun and Christoph,
	Thanks for your suggestions and discussion. Tejun really
gives a good point to hide memoryless node interface from normal
slab users. I will rework the patch set to go that direction.
Regards!
Gerry
