[PATCH] virnuma: Allow multiple nodes for preferred policy
In the past, the preferred policy
(VIR_DOMAIN_NUMATUNE_MEM_PREFERRED) required exactly one (host)
NUMA node. This made sense because:
1) the libnuma API - numa_set_preferred() allowed exactly one
node, because
2) corresponding kernel syscall (__NR_set_mempolicy) accepted
exactly one node (for MPOL_PREFERRED mode).
But things have changed since then. Firstly, kernel introduced
new MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY mode (v5.15-rc1~107^2~21) which was then
exposed in libnuma as numa_set_preferred_many() (v2.0.15~24).
Fortunately, libnuma also exposes numa_has_preferred_many() which
returns whether the kernel has support for the new mode (1) or
not (0).
Putting this all together, we can lift our check for sufficiently
new kernel and libnuma.
