+ * @node_low_pfn: the end physical address of the directly addressable memory
+ * @node_bootmem_map: is a bitmap pointer - the bits represent all physical
+ * memory pages (including holes) on the node.
+ * @last_end_off: the offset within the page of the end of the last allocation;
+ * if 0, the page used is full
+ * @hint_idx: the PFN of the page used with the last allocation;
+ * together with using this with the @last_end_offset field,
+ * a test can be made to see if allocations can be merged
+ * with the page used for the last allocation rather than
+ * using up a full new page.
+ * @list: list entry in the linked list ordered by the memory addresses
