This patch applies to 5.9 and earlier kernels only.
Since 5.10, this has been fortunately fixed by the commit
e5e179aa3a39 ("pseries/drmem: don't cache node id in drmem_lmb struct").
Why can't we just backport that patch instead? It's almost always
better to do that than to have a one-off patch, as almost always those
have bugs in them.
That's a good option too.
I was thinking that this 5.10 patch was not matching the stable release's
guidelines since it was targeting performance issue, but since it is also fixing
this issue, I'm certainly wrong.
So, forget that patch.
Thanks,
Laurent.
