But if the pgdat is allocated by bootmem allocator, the clearing step is skipped. And when hot adding the same memory, the uninitialized pgdat is reused. But free_area_init_node() checks wether pgdat is set to zero. As a result, free_area_init_node() hits WARN_ON(). This patch clears pgdat which is allocated by bootmem allocator in try_offline_node().
