Since NVDIMMs are installed on memory slots, they expose the NUMA
topology of a platform.  This patchset adds support of sysfs
'numa_node' to the NVDIMM devices under /sys/bus/nd/devices.
With this change, numactl(8) accepts 'block:' and 'file:' paths of
pmem and btt devices as shown in the examples below.
  numactl --preferred block:pmem0 --show
  numactl --preferred file:/dev/pmem0s --show

Here is a result of fio benchmark to ext4/dax on pmem0 using numactl
on an HP DL380 with 2 sockets; pmem0 on node 0, and pmem1 on node 1.

  Local [1] :  4098.3MB/s
  Remote [2]:  3718.4MB/s

[1] numactl --preferred block:pmem0 --cpunodebind block:pmem0 fio <fs-on-pmem0> 
[2] numactl --preferred block:pmem1 --cpunodebind block:pmem1 fio <fs-on-pmem0>

Patch 1/3-2/3 apply on top of the acpica branch of the pm tree.
Patch 3/3 applies on top of Dan Williams's v5 patch series of 
"libnvdimm: non-volatile memory devices".

Toshi Kani (3):
  1/3 acpi: Fix acpi_map_pxm_to_node() to handle numa_off
  2/3 acpi: Add export to acpi_map_pxm_to_node()
  3/3 libnvdimm: Add sysfs numa_node to NVDIMM devices
