The acpi_map_pxm_to_online_node() helper is used to find the closest
online node to a given proximity domain. This is used to map devices in
a proximity domain with no online memory or cpus to the closest online
node and populate a device's 'numa_node' property. The numa_node
property allows applications to be migrated "close" to a resource.
In preparation for providing a generic facility to optionally map an
address range to its closest online node, or the node the range would
represent were it to be onlined (target_node), up-level the core of
acpi_map_pxm_to_online_node() to a generic mm/numa helper.

Currently hmat.c lives under an "hmat" directory which does not enhance
the description of the file. The initial motivation for giving hmat.c
its own directory was to delineate it as mm functionality in contrast to
ACPI device driver functionality.
As ACPI continues to play an increasing role in conveying
memory location and performance topology information to the OS take the
opportunity to co-locate these NUMA relevant tables in a combined
directory.
numa.c is renamed to srat.c and moved to drivers/acpi/numa/ along with
hmat.c.
