This patch is meant to force the device registration for nvdimm devices to
be closer to the actual device. This is achieved by using either the NUMA
node ID of the region, or of the parent. By doing this we can have
everything above the region based on the region, and everything below the
region based on the nvdimm bus.
By guaranteeing NUMA locality I see an improvement of as high as 25% for
per-node init of a system with 12TB of persistent memory.
Thank you for having included the performance numbers.
