+commit 6f5a55f1a6c5abee15a0e878e5c74d9f1569b8b0
+Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds at linux-foundation.org>

+    Fix potential crash with sys_move_pages
+    
+    We incorrectly depended on the 'node_state/node_isset()' functions
+    testing the node range, rather than checking it explicitly.  That's not
+    reliable, even if it might often happen to work.  So do the proper
+    explicit test.
