So I would like to know how to determine which node should be used for
allocation. Changes of __get_user_pages() to alloc_pages_node() are
trivial.

netdev_alloc_skb() knows the netdevice, and therefore you can
obtain the "struct device;" referenced inside of the netdev,
and therefore you can determine the node using the struct
device.

Christophe is working on adding support for this using existing
allocator.
