This hunk is causing problems with one of my builds (generic,
uniprocessor). Note
that the #else at the start of this hunk is from a #ifdef CONFIG_SMP ... so I'm
wondering why we need #if defined(CONFIG_NUMA) inside uniprocessor code :-)
How can you have NUMA issues with only one cpu!!!

[I'm also wondering why the config that has the compile problem has CONFIG_SMP=n
and CONFIG_NUMA=y ... but that weirdness exposed this silliness, so
perhaps it isn't
all bad]

Error message is:
kernel/sched.c: In function `sched_init_smp':
kernel/sched.c:7994: error: `sched_group_nodes_bycpu' undeclared
(first use in this function)
kernel/sched.c:7994: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
kernel/sched.c:7994: error: for each function it appears in.)
