Hmm. Neil introduced the `shutdown' argument a few days ago, and I
thought I had his patches in my quilt tree, but apparently I screwed
something up. Sorry about that.

Why? The only new code which is sensitive to CONFIG_NUMA is
for_each_node(node) and that has a definition for !NUMA that
appears (by inspection) to do the right thing.

Will do.

That code is a copy-n-paste of highest_possible_processor_id().

Ok, an incremental patch it is then. Let it not be said I
don't take a hint the fourth time.

Right.
