The changes to come to NUMA support are all guest visible. In theory we could just create a new 5_1 class option flag to avoid the changes to cascade to 5.1 and under. The reality is that these changes are only relevant if the machine has more than one NUMA node. There is no need to change guest behavior that has been around for years needlesly.
This new helper will be used by the next patches to determine whether we should retain the (soon to be) legacy NUMA behavior in the pSeries machine. The new behavior will only be exposed if:: - machine is pseries-5.2 and newer; - more than one NUMA node is declared in NUMA state.
