IIUC you want a multi-CPU version of sched_numa_find_closest(). I'm OK with
the need (and you have the numbers to back it up), but I have some qualms
with the implementation, see more below.

^^^^^^^^^
That should be a struct *cpumask.

This will fail if ncpus > nr_cpu_ids, which shouldn't be a problem. It
would make more sense to set *up to* ncpus, the calling code can then
decide if getting fewer than requested is OK or not.
I also don't get the fallback to cpumask_local_spread(), is that if the
NUMA topology hasn't been initialized yet? It feels like most users of this
would invoke it late enough (i.e. anything after early initcalls) to have
the backing data available.
Finally, I think iterating only once per NUMA level would make more sense.
I've scribbled something together from those thoughts, see below. This has
just the mlx5 bits touched to show what I mean, but that's just compile
tested.
