Looks good but just two queries.
1. Is there a possibility of early_cpu_to_node() being called before any
node is online?
2. first_online_node is actually not a variable, it returns the lowest
online node. Right? If lets a early_cpu_to_node() for the same CPU across a
node online/offline may end up giving two different nids. Right?
