No, this is happening in tip/master which does not include the huge zero
page work yet. AFAIK, that's still queued in Andrew's tree for the next
merge window. It is possible that there will be collisions between numa
balancing and the huge zero page work but it hasn't happened yet.

It might be a similar class of bug.
