There were several prior submissions with some sort of replication

In the last couple years, several research articles related to solving
locality issues on NUMA machines through replication emerged as well.

You're lumping a lot of different NUMA replication things together in
your list.  That doesn't give me confidence you know what you're doing.

I *think* what you're doing here is kernel text replication.  Other
architectures (mips, arm) have managed to do this without core MM
changes.  Why can't you?
