I found a small bug of NUMA emulation code for x86_64. (CONFIG_NUMA_EMU)
If machine is non-NUMA, find_node_by_addr() should return
NUMA_NO_NODE, but current implementation code returns existent maximum
NUMA node number + 1. 
This is not existent NUMA node number.

However, this behaviour does not affect NUMA emulation fortunately, because
acpi_fake_nodes() that is caller of find_node_by_addr() gets pxm
(proximity domain) by node_to_pxm() from non-existent NUMA node number
that was returned by find_node_by_addr().
node_to_pxm() returns PXM_INVAL that means illegal or non-existent
NUMA node number.
