In a system with a single initiator node, and one or more memory-only 'target' nodes, the memory-only node(s) would fail to register their initiator node correctly. i.e. in sysfs:

Where as the correct behavior should be:
# ls /sys/devices/system/node/node0/access0/targets/ node0 node1
This happened because hmat_register_target_initiators() uses list_sort() to sort the initiator list, but the sort comparision function (initiator_cmp()) is overloaded to also set the node mask's bits.
In a system with a single initiator, the list is singular, and list_sort elides the comparision helper call. Thus the node mask never gets set, and the subsequent search for the best initiator comes up empty.
Add a new helper to sort the initiator list, and handle the singular list corner case by setting the node mask for that explicitly.

Hm. I think it indicates that these set_bit()s do not belong to initiator_cmp().
Maybe remove both set_bit() from the compare helper and walk the list separately to initialize the node mask? I think it will be easier to follow.
