Well thinking back to the Nehalem architecture I seem to recall that there
were devices that were connected to a shared IOH that was accessible
across both nodes. I thought that they might have a node ID of
NUMA_NO_NODE since they didn't really belong to either of the two nodes in
the sytem.

It would effectively work out the same as your patch compiler wise since
dev_to_node would be NUMA_NO_NODE in the non-NUMA case so it would compile
out the warning since it would fail the first check, and in the NUMA case
it would add an extra check to make sure that dev_to_node is actually
indicating the device needs a specific node in the NUMA enabled case.
