Systems which have all nodes at a distance of at most 1 hop should be identified as 'NUMA_DIRECT'.
However, the scheduler incorrectly identifies it as 'NUMA_BACKPLANE'. This is because 'n' is assigned to sched_max_numa_distance but the code (mis)interprets it to mean 'number of hops'. Rik had actually used sched_domains_numa_levels for detecting a 'NUMA_DIRECT' topology- http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=141279712429834&w=2 But that was changed when he removed the hops table in the subsequent version- http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=141353106106771&w=2 Fixing the issue here.
