From: Andy Whitcroft <[email-masked]>

This patch eliminates the false hole which can form between
ZONE_NORMAL and ZONE_HIGHMEM when 4g/4g split is enabled.  Basically,
the patch changes the allocation of the numa remaps regions (the
source of the holes) such that they officially fall within VMALLOC
space, where they belong.
