Though numad will manage the memory allocation of task dynamically,
but it wants management application (libvirt) to pre-set the memory
policy according to the advisory nodeset returned from querying numad,
(just like pre-bind CPU nodeset for domain process), and thus the
performance could benifit much more from it.
This patch introduces new XML tag 'placement', value 'auto' indicates
whether to set the memory policy with the advisory nodeset from numad,
and its value defaults to 'static'. e.g.
<numatune>
<memory placement='auto' mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
Just like what current "numatune" does, the 'auto' numa memory policy
setting uses libnuma's API too.
So, to full drive numad, one needs to specify placement='auto' for
both "<vcpu>" and "<numatune><memory .../></numatune>". It's a bit
inconvenient, but makes sense from semantics' point of view.
---
An alternative way is to not introduce the new XML tag, and pre-set
the memory policy implicitly with "<vcpu placement='auto'>4</vcpu>",
but IMHO it implies too much, and I'd not like go this way unless
the new XML tag is not accepted.
