If you use GFP_THISNODE then you will trigger a reclaim pass on the remote 
node. That could generate a performance regression.

We already support this kind of behavior via the node_reclaim / 
zone_reclaiom setting in procfs. Please use that.

The remote buildup of the partial pages can be addressed by changing the 
remote_node_defrag_ratio in the slabs. This will make slub scan remote 
nodes for partial slabs before going into the page allocator.
