When Linux is running on bare metal, it gets the raw hardware information. On POWER8 little endian bare metal machine, the node number is not continuous. It will jump from 0 to other values, for example, it can be 0, 1, 16, 17. This patch modified the CONFIG_RTE_MAX_NUMA_NODES value to make dpdk work on POWER8 bare metal little endian machine.
