All we need is an appropriate zonelist for each node, pointing to

But there is no memory on the node. Does the zonelist contain the zones of the node without memory or not? We simply fall back each allocation to the next node as if the node was overflowing?

Sure. there's no point in putting an empty zone in the zonelist.
We should just skip anything where present_pages is zero.
