[PATCH 1/1] Drivers: hv: vmbus: Allocate ring buffer memory in NUMA aware fashion

From: K. Y. Srinivasan
Date: Sun May 31 2015 - 23:06:37 EST


Allocate ring buffer memory from the NUMA node assigned to the channel.
Since this is a performance and not a correctness issue, if the node specific
allocation were to fail, fall back and allocate without specifying the node.
