That sounds like a different patch series -- after all, the topology 
info is also "open-coded" at the moment.  I think there's enough work to 
do with the NUMA placement stuff for now. :-)

My only nit (somewhat pedantic) is that "x / (1 << n)" will come up with 
exactly the same answer as "x >> n", but with a very fast bit-shift 
rather than a very slow integer divison.  Not that it matters for this 
purpose; but it does make the expression more complicated-looking than 
it needs to me.

But other than that, I think this patch is probably good as it is.
