I think it would be better if this had been split into multiple
patches, one per subsystem, instead of a single large patch. It would
be easier to review it that way.

With Stephen's patch (am I looking at the correct one?) the tools/perf
part gets its own copy of numa.h and thus is not dependent on the rest
of the patch, correct?

To me it seems that the best course of action now would be to split off
a "tools: replace open encodings for NUMA_NO_NODE" patch with Stephen's
changes folded in. Keep his sign-off and add a "Co-Developed-by" tag. 

Cheers,
Lubo
