So, the patch looks like the following and it even reduces LOC but I'm
not sure whether I want to apply this. Previously, once emluation
step is complete, the rest of the system wouldn't care whether nodes
are being emulated or not. After this change, although it's still
contained in numa_64.c, we end up with some configurations remapped
and some still using physical nodes. Unless someone tells me that
2MiB is frigging precious on machines with 512 emulated nodes, I don't
think I'm gonna apply this one.
Thanks.
