Subject: [PATCH v3 4/5] mm: add numa node symlink for cpu devices in sysfs

You can discover which CPUs belong to a NUMA node by examining
/sys/devices/system/node/node#/

However, it's not convenient to go in the other direction, when looking at
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/

Yes, you can muck about in sysfs, but adding these symlinks makes
life a lot more convenient.
