Ok, I've gone over the patches and retested them. Other than having
to extend them to cover x86_64 they still seem to work as planned. I
have updated the commentry to better explain the problem and the
fix as encapsulated here.
When this was proposed last time there was push back to get the
nodes right. Whist this is clearly a good thing, I think we need
this as a first step if the underlying patches are going to stay
in.

pci device ensure sysdata initialised v2
We have been seeing panic's on NUMA systems in pci_call_probe() in
2.6.19-rc1-mm1 and later. This is related to the changes introduced
in the commit below:
[x86, PCI] Switch pci_bus::sysdata from NUMA node integer to a pointer
0a247a58fc3e2ecfc17654301033e8b8d08df2a2
In this change the sysdata has changed from directly representing
a value (the node number in NUMA) to a pointer to a structure.
However, it seems that we do not always initialise this sysdata
before we probe the device.
Prior to the changes above the node was defaulted to 'NULL'
allocating the devices to node 0 unconditionally. This patch adds
a default sysdata entry (pci_default_sysdata), this is then used
where 'NULL' was used previously. pci_default_sysdata defaults
the node to unknown (-1). This is a more accurate assignment,
mirroring the value returned where no topology support is provided
and no locality information is available.
There are only two uses of this value in the affected architectures
(x86, x86_64) and generic code:
1) in x86_64, dma_alloc_pages() looks up the node in order to
allocate node local memory. Here if the node is invalid we
will default to the first online node. Behaviour here should
be unchanged.
2) in generic, pci_call_probe() looks up the node in order to
restrict execution of the probe on the card local node, to
favor node local allocation. Where this is unknown previously
we would force execution (and thereby allocation) to node 0,
this is arguably wrong and using -1 releases this restriction.
In an ideal world we should be supplying a sysdata for the
appropriate node where it is known. Where it is not known defaulting
to -1 seems a better course, and would help us where node 0 is
short of memory.
