Isn't that more duplication from what's already in there for nid
handling ? (Which btw may not be optimal, simply what I'm saying is that
all that stuff should be factored).

maybe could try to merge them later. or let sparc64 to use lmb_find_area_node()?

This is easily replaced by something simpler using my current WIP branch
and its nid allocator. IE, You don't need to add
find_memory_core_early(0 or any of that. It can be made a lot more
simply.
