Uh actually you are probably right, the NODE_DATA doesn't exist anymore? In
Sachin's first report [1] we have

[    0.000000] numa:   NODE_DATA [mem 0x8bfedc900-0x8bfee3fff]
[    0.000000] numa:     NODE_DATA(0) on node 1
[    0.000000] numa:   NODE_DATA [mem 0x8bfed5200-0x8bfedc8ff]

But in this thread, with your patches Sachin reports:

[    0.000000] numa:   NODE_DATA [mem 0x8bfedc900-0x8bfee3fff]

So I assume it's just node 1. In that case, node_present_pages is really dangerous.

I think that's the place where this would be best to fix.

I think this seems to defeat the purpose of node_to_mem_node()? Shouldn't it
return only nodes that are online with present memory?
CCing Joonsoo who seems to have introduced this in ad2c8144418c ("topology: add
support for node_to_mem_node() to determine the fallback node")

I think we do need well defined and documented rules around node_to_mem_node(),
cpu_to_node(), existence of NODE_DATA, various node_states bitmaps etc so
everyone handles it the same, safe way.
