+ printk(KERN_INFO "Building NUMA distance from ACPI 2.0 SLIT\n");
This printk just looks like noise during boot. Surely this is normal behavior on a NUMA system?
+ printk(KERN_INFO "No SLIT table, defaulting NUMA distance\n");
But this one deserves more prominence than just KERN_INFO. I'd say that it deserves a KERN_ERR rating (without accurate information we'll make some highly questionable scheduling and memory placement decisions). On the other hand the only way for the end-user to fix this is to complain to their system vendor to fix firmware. So perhaps it is just a KERN_NOTICE.
