Revert "x86, NUMA: Fix fakenuma boot failure"
Andreas Herrmann reported that 7d6b4670 ("x86, NUMA: Fix fakenuma boot failure") causes certain physical NUMA topologies (for example AMD Magny-Cours) to move sibling cpus to a single node when in reality they are in separate domains. This may result in some nodes being completely void of cpus, which doesn't accurately represent the correct topology. The system will boot, but will have suboptimal NUMA performance. This commit was intended as a fix for NUMA emulation, but should not cause a regression for real NUMA machines as a side effect. ( There will be a separate fix for the numa-debug code, which will not affect physical topologies. ) Reported-by: Andreas Herrmann <herrmann.der.user@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: David Rientjes <rientjes@google.com> Acked-by: KOSAKI Motohiro <kosaki.motohiro@jp.fujitsu.com> Cc: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.00.1104201918110.12634@chino.kir.corp.google.comSigned-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
