Good catch.

If you look at score_nearby_nodes(), you will see that
maxdist is only used when the topology is NUMA_BACKPLANE.

The source score never changes when having a directly
connected or NUMA_GLUELESS_MESH type system, so the source
score does not need to be recalculated unless we are actually
dealing with a NUMA_BACKPLANE topology.

Looking forward to a v2 with just the first fix.
