numa_node_to_cpus() uses an internal cache to store the mapping
between NUMA nodes and CPUs (see Bug #1213835), which means
long-running processes such as libvirtd will get stale data if
CPU hotplugging is used during their lifetime.

The function has been rewritten to collect the information
directly from sysfs.

It might be worth noting that numactl does that anyway.

Let me get this straight.  So if you were not on linux, but had
numactl installed, we would get some bad info from the library in case
the cached data didn't reflect the change made in the system, but
after your change, we wouldn't be able to get any data at all?  That
seems nasty, could we at least fall back to the previous behaviour,
even though it has some bugs?

Looking at the code of libnuma, it looks like it uses the sysfs even
if it's not on linux.  Could we throw away the #ifdef __linux__ and
just error out in case any of the directories doesn't exist?

Other than that, the patch looks fine. (one more nit pick down below)

Just returning -1 here doesn't send anyone looking down the code and
you can throw away the 'out' label.
