LU-7734 lnet: NUMA support


This patch adds NUMA node support. NUMA node information is stored
in the CPT table. A NUMA node mask is maintained for the entire table
as well as for each CPT to track the NUMA nodes related to each of
the CPTs. Following key APIs added:

cfs_cpt_of_node(): returns the CPT of particular NUMA node
cfs_cpt_distance(): calculates the distance between two CPTs

When the LND device is started it finds the NUMA node of the physical
device and then from there it finds the CPT, which is subsequently
stored in the NI structure.

When selecting the NI, the MD CPT is determined and the distance
between the MD CPT and the device CPT is calculated. The NI
with the shortest distance is preferred.

If the device or system is not NUMA aware then the CPT for the
device will default to CFS_CPT_ANY and the distance calculated
when CFS_CPT_ANY is used is largest in the system. IE, none
NUMA aware devices are least preferred.

A NUMA range value can be set. If the value is large enough
it amounts to basically turning off NUMA criterion completely.
