ok, i will rephrase it.
 i was intended to say cross NUMA node collection/cpu affinity change.

it does not makes sense to enable on non-NUMA/single socket platforms.
By default NUMA is enabled on ThunderX2 dual socket platforms.

ok, i will rephrase it in next version.

there can be drop,  if interrupt happens before INV, however, it is
highly unlikely that we will hit the issue since MOVI and INV are
executed back to back. this workaround fixed issue seen on couple of
IOs.
