Subject: [PATCH] ia64: default the NUMA node distance when there is no ACPI SLIT


If during boot no ACPI 2.0 SLIT table is found we do not initialise
the NUMA node distance table, leaving all node distances as 0.
This causes IA-64 to fail the regression tests for libnuma.  Also,
when we have a bad formatted table we will set all node distances
to 10.  Both of these forms lose all NUMA information by indicating
all nodes are as close as the "local node", and are inconsistant
in their values.

When an architecture does not offer NUMA topology support the default
node_distance is a distance of LOCAL_DISTANCE (10) to the local node
and REMOTE_DISTANCE (20) to all others.  It seems more correct to
follow this model when the SLIT information is missing or corrupt.

This patch updates the SLIT failure paths to fill in the NUMA node
distance table with this default.
