Yes, I now realize that it is possible to make this change earlier.
However, reordering
the patches would cause additional change so I will not change the
order in the next
version. Result would be the same. :)

Okay. As you suggested below, with NUMA_NO_NODE handling, we can remove
the more wrappers. I will do it.

I have tried this suggestion and found that code is not simpler than before.
However, there would be minor performance benefit so I will include
this change, too.

Yes, I will use this suggestion.

Thanks.
