+Description:
+ This file contains the NUMA node to which the PCI device is
+ attached, or -1 if the node is unknown. The initial value
+ comes from an ACPI _PXM method or a similar firmware
+ source. If that is missing or incorrect, this file can be
+ written to override the node. In that case, please report
+ a firmware bug to the system vendor. Writing to this file
+ taints the kernel with TAINT_FIRMWARE_WORKAROUND, which
+ reduces the supportability of your system.
