Can you add documentation of this additional feature
for numa_balancing in
admin-guide/sysctl/kernel.rst

Should you make NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL and NUMA_BALANCING_CGROUP
mutually exclusive in? In other words
echo 5 > /proc/sys/kernel/numa_balancing should result in numa_balancing to be 1?

Otherwise tg_numa_balance_enabled() can return 0 with NUMA_BALANCING_CGROUP
bit turned on even though you have NUMA_BALANCING_NORMAL bit on.
