Subject: RE: [PATCH part5 0/7] Arrange hotpluggable memory as ZONE_MOVABLE.

Page tables are a big issue if we have 4K mappings (8 byte entry per
4K page means 2MB of page tables per GB of memory) ... but only
used for DEBUG cases, right?
If we use 2M mappings, then allocations are 512x smaller - so only
4K per GB - hard to justify spreading that across nodes.
If we can use 1GB mappings - then another 512x reduction to 8 bytes per GB (or 8KB per TB)
Aren't page structures a bigger issue? ~64 bytes per 4K page. Do we
make sure these get allocated from the NUMA node that they describe?
This should not hurt the ZONE_MOVEABLE-ness of this - although they are
kernel structures they can be freed when the node is removed (at that point
they describe memory that is no longer present). From a scalability perspective
we don't want to run node0 low on memory by using it for every other node.
>From a NUMA perspective we want the page_t that describes a page to be
in the same locality as the page itself.
