From: Christoph Hellwig <h...@lst.de>

If we need a NUMA crossing a mids a contiguous memory range
we split the range at NUMA boundary so to produce two pmemX
devices. We do not like 2 NUMA IDs at the same device.

TODO: What happens with real type-12 NvDIMM the BIOS splits
these ranges?

Christoph I please need this patch for now. I have booting
problems on some machines, when a contiguous pmem range crosses
a NUMA boundary.
