one node could have 8 cores or 16 threads, so should be right.

other case the intel new 4 sockets system will have two IOHs, and one for socket0 and socket 1
and one for socket2 and socet3

acpi root bus _PXM only can return one.
so wonder if ACPI spec need to be extended to support two nodes there.

after that, we need to extend numa_node to support that.
