+Description:    Discover NUMA node a CPU belongs to
+
+                When CONFIG_NUMA is enabled, a symbolic link that points
+                to the corresponding NUMA node directory.
+
+                For example, the following symlink is created for cpu42
+                in NUMA node 2:
+
+                /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu42/node2 -> ../../node/node2
