The difference between this v2 patch and what is already in the -mm tree 
(http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/cpusets-randomize-node-rotor-used-in-cpuset_mem_spread_node.patch) 
is the lazy initialization by adding cpuset_{mem,slab}_spread_node()?

It'd probably be better to just make an incremental patch on top of 
mmotm-2011-04-14-15-08 with a new changelog and then propose with with 
your list of reviewed-by lines.

Andrew could easily drop the earlier version and merge this v2, but I'm 
asking for selfish reasons: please use NUMA_NO_NODE instead of -1.

Thanks!
