As requested by Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>:
"
f7a6254766d216b32be5afe12e864a402f3c6fbc breaks a couple of ARM
boards, which depend on the historical bootmem allocation order.
There is a cleaner solution around to remove the pgdat list
completely, but this is a topic for post 2.6.14
Andi signalled ACK already."
