However, if the preferred node is all busy, we would skip considering that node for tasks swaps in the subsequent loop. This prevents NUMA convergence of tasks on busy systems. However, swapping locations with a task on our preferred nid, when the preferred nid is busy, is perfectly fine. The fix is to also look for a CPU on our preferred nid when it is totally busy. This changes "perf bench numa mem -p 4 -t 20 -m -0 -P 1000" from not converging in 15 minutes on my 4 node system, to converging in 10-20 seconds.
