Some platform devices like ARM SMMU are memory-mapped and populated by ACPI/IORT.
In this case, NUMA topology of those platform devices are exported by firmware as
well. Software might care about the numa_node of those devices in order to achieve
NUMA locality.
This patch will show the numa_node for this kind of devices in sysfs. For those
platform devices without numa, numa_node won't be visible.

Needed by platform device drivers, such as the upcoming
vfio-platform driver, in order to bypass the existing OF, ACPI,
id_table and name string matches, and successfully be able to be
bound to any device, like so:
echo vfio-platform > /sys/bus/platform/devices/fff51000.ethernet/driver_override
echo fff51000.ethernet > /sys/bus/platform/devices/fff51000.ethernet/driver/unbind
echo fff51000.ethernet > /sys/bus/platform/drivers_probe
This mimics "PCI: Introduce new device binding path using
pci_dev.driver_override", which is an interface enhancement
for more deterministic PCI device binding, e.g., when in the
presence of hotplug.
