I tried it today, but didn't find any build errors any more, guess those
errors should have already been fixed. 

But it seems to me by disabling CONFIG_NUMA when CONFIG_SMP is disabled,
could at least prevent some unnecessary code being compiled into the
kernel. (After building a kernel with/without CONFIG_NUMA just now, it
seems that the vmlinux is ~100K smaller without CONFIG_NUMA).

I'm not sure whether this is still needed. 

Thanks, Zhong
