When the guest allocates virtqueues on a different NUMA node than the one the Vhost metadata are allocated, both the Vhost device struct and the virtqueues struct are reallocated.
However, reallocating the guest pages table was missing, which likely causes at least one cross-NUMA accesses for every burst of packets. This patch reallocates this table on the same NUMA node as the other metadata.
