numa_node_dist() seems to be used only once by
sched_record_numa_dist(), would it be possible to
use node_distance() directly
sched_record_numa_dist(offline_node, node_distance, &distances,
				   &max_dist, &nr_node_levels))?

Would it be possible to use
WRITE_ONCE(sched_max_numa_distance, distance[nr_node_levels - 1]);
so we can simplify the code by removing the introduced 'max_dist'
both in sched_record_numa_dist() and sched_init_numa().
