What about something like this (untested):

Subject: [PATCH] drivers/base/node.c: optimize get_nid_for_pfn()

Since commit d84f2f5a7552 ("drivers/base/node.c: simplify
unregister_memory_block_under_nodes()") we only have a single user of
get_nid_for_pfn(). The remaining user calls this function when booting -
where all added memory is online.

Make it clearer that this function should only be used during boot (
e.g., calling it on offline memory would be bad) by renaming the
function to something meaningful, optimize out the ifdef and the additional
system_state check, and add a comment why CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT
handling is in place at all.

Also, optimize the call site. There is no need to check against
page_nid < 0 - it will never match the nid (nid >= 0).
