If we can't get here, then we have a bigger bug. Fixing the output is
wrong if we have an earlier bug generating an inconsistent struct in the
first place.

I agree.

These may have used <numatune>, but none of them used it in the manner
that would have been detected by round trip parsing. Ergo, we are
missing a test, either a test that invalid input data is rejected
earlier on, or a test that when input data omits information, then round
trip handing of that data doesn't get the output into an inconsistent
state when it adds in the defaults for the omitted information.

Which two entries are you thinking of? Maybe it is a bad design
decision, but we're stuck with it, so we should at least support what we
have documented.

The TCK is a great place to test the API. But maybe the real bug here
is that if you hotplug a request for a numatune and it goes through
cgroup, then we should be updating the conf struct to reflect either
static or auto, even though cgroup doesn't directly care, so that the
output function then works in all cases.
