IMHO this is too much clutter. Just make it mandatory for the architectures to define their own MAX_NR_MEMBLKS in the numa case.
Or actually even better just have a
#ifndef MAX_NR_MEMBLKS #define MAX_NR_MEMBLKS 1 #endif
in the generic code and let every architecture that wants to override it do so.
