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".
