Subject: [PATCH]  pci: derive nearby CPUs from device's instead of bus'
	NUMA information

In case of AMD CPU northbridge functions this NUMA information might
differ.

Here is an example from a 4-socket system.

Currently Linux shows

  root@...en:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.4# cat numa_node
  0
  root@...en:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.4# cat local_cpu*
  0-3
  00000000,0000000f

which is not correct for northbridge functions as the local CPUs
are those of the same socket.

With this patch and a quirk for AMD CPU NB functions Linux can
do better and correctly show

  root@...en:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.4# cat numa_node
  2
  root@...en:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.4# cat local_cpu*
  8-11
  00000000,00000f00

The quirk for AMD CPU NB functions is contained in another patch
that I'll send to x86-maintainers for inclusion into tip tree.

Please apply.

Thanks,
Andreas
