[RFC/RFT PATCH 0/6] Unify NUMA implementation between ARM64 & RISC-V

This series attempts to move the ARM64 numa implementation to common
code so that RISC-V can leverage that as well instead of reimplementing
it again.

RISC-V specific bits are based on initial work done by Greentime Hu [1] but
modified to reuse the common implementation to avoid duplication.

This series has been tested on qemu with numa enabled for both RISC-V & ARM64.
It would be great if somebody can test it on numa capable ARM64 hardware platforms.
This patch series doesn't modify the maintainers list for the common code (arch_numa)
as I am not sure if somebody from ARM64 community or Greg should take up the
maintainership. Ganapatrao was the original author of the arm64 version.
I would be happy to update that in the next revision once it is decided.

For RISC-V, the following qemu series is a pre-requisite to test the patches in Qemu.

There may be some minor conflicts with Mike's cleanup series [2] depending on the
order in which these two series are being accepted. I can rebase on top his series
if required.
