This patchset addresses the kernel bloat that occurs when NR_CPUS is increased.
The memory numbers below are with NR_CPUS = 1024 which I've been testing (4 and
32 real processors, the rest "possible" using the additional_cpus start option.)
These changes are all specific to the x86 architecture, non-arch specific
changes will follow.
Based on 2.6.24-rc6-mm1

V1->V2:
- Remove extraneous casts
- Add comment about node memory < NODE_MIN_SIZE
- changed pxm_to_node_map to u16
- changed memnode map entries to u16
- Fix !NUMA builds with '#ifdef CONFIG_NUMA"
- Add slight optimization to apic_is_clustered_box()
V2->V3:
- add early_cpu_to_node function to keep cpu_to_node efficient
- move and rename smp_set_apicids() to setup_percpu_maps()
- call setup_percpu_maps() as early as possible
- changed memnode.embedded_map from [64-16] to [64-8]
(and size comment to 128 bytes)

[Updated memory usage table.]
The following columns are using the SuSE default x86_64 config
[which has NR_CPUS=128] and NR_CPUS=1024. There are no modules
in either. Each column's percentage is relative to the first.
