So that's

-numa node,cpus=0-1,nodeid=0 -numa node,cpus=2-3,nodeid=1, \
-numa node,cpus=4-5,nodeid=2, -numa node,cpus=6-7,nodeid=3, \
-numa dist,src=0,dst=1,val=12, \
-numa dist,src=0,dst=2,val=22, \
-numa dist,src=0,dst=3,val=24, \
-numa dist,src=1,dst=2,val=20, \
-numa dist,src=1,dst=3,val=22, \
-numa dist,src=2,dst=3,val=12

but running this still doesn't get me a splat. Debugging
sched_domains_numa_distance[] still gives me
{10, 12, 20, 22, 24}

That is another thing that's worth considering. Morten was arguing that if
the distance between two nodes is so tiny, it might not be worth
representing it at all in the scheduler topology.
