srat, x86: add support for nodes spanning other nodes
For example, If the physical address layout on a two node system with 8 GB
memory is something like:
node 0: 0-2GB, 4-6GB
node 1: 2-4GB, 6-8GB
Current kernels fail to boot/detect this NUMA topology.
ACPI SRAT tables can expose such a topology which needs to be supported.
