   I've noticed a small typo in the changelog.

As reported by https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53501,
"MemTotal" from /proc/meminfo means memory pages managed by the buddy
system (managed_pages), but "MemTotal" from /sys/.../node/nodex/meminfo
means phsical pages present (present_pages) within the NUMA node.

    s/phsical/physical/

There's a difference between managed_pages and present_pages due to
bootmem allocator and reserved pages.

And Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt says
     MemTotal: Total usable ram (i.e. physical ram minus a few reserved
               bits and the kernel binary code)

So change /sys/.../node/nodex/meminfo to report available pages within
the node as "MemTotal".
