Xen devel - Jul 2008 - [PATCH 1/2]: hvm: NUMA guest: allocate memory and pin cpus according to guestnodes number (resend)

This patch introduces a new config file option called guestnodes.
Depending on the specified number (which can be 0 (the default) to
return to current behavior) a set of suitable nodes (which have enough
memory and are the least used ones) is selected and memory allocation is
split evenly across these host nodes. CPU affinity is set accordingly.

Reworked to apply against staging 18036.
