No, UME here means that e.g. 4kB blocks are available on unmovable, movable and 
reclaimable lists.

Perhaps there's something wrong with zonelists and we are skipping the Node 1 
Normal zone. Or there's some race with cpuset operations (but can't see how).

The question is, how reproducible is this? And what exactly the test cpuset01 
does? Is it doing multiple things in a loop that could be reduced to a single 
testcase?
