Oh, that's a really good point.  But can you at least change the message to do a
FW_BUG and dump the node information?  That would be useful for debugging.
But this not always will be a FW_BUG. If a user will not populate one of
the nodes with memory this will happen as well. 
Hmmm ... let's maybe think about this.  I wonder if there is some mechanism with
which we can determine that?  Larry Woodman -- is there any mm related call that
we can make to determine if a node is memory-less?

I could see this to be
quoted
the main reason of this message to be printed. In this case
num_possible_nodes() will be e.g. 2 and dev_to_node(&pdev->dev) will be
-1 so I don't really know what will be a useful info to print so we
don't confuse the user.
If you see -1, it means "No node was assigned" ... so -1 in a debug message is
okay IMO.
Never mind -- I'm not thinking straight after a long weekend :)  This is all
okay.  The message above will only print iff node < 0, ie) -1.

So I'll ack shortly.
