Automatic NUMA balancing currently depends on reusing the PROT_NONE
bit which has caused problems on Xen. In preparation for using one of
the unused physical address bits this patch requires x86-64 for automatic
NUMA balancing. 32-bit support for NUMA on x86 is no longer interesting
and the loss of automatic NUMA balancing support should be no surprise.
