Did you mean sparc64 system does not has ACPI, the device's node id will not specified by ACPI, so the ACPI is unrelated here?
Yes, sparc64 never has and never will have ACPI. This is also true for several other platforms where you have made this change. The assumption of your entire patch set is that the semantics of the NUMA node ID are somehow completely defined by ACPI semantics. Which is not true.
