Let me try rewriting:

"
Many data center servers employ Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA)
architectures. Remote numa memory access results in high latency. While
memory placement is one issue, sub-optimal page table placement can also
result in surprise performance degradation.

Why do we only care about "last level page table", why not about the others?

IMHO, we could emit something like "0, 1, 3, 0" instead for a given user
space address, showing the NUMA node the page table belongs to from
highest to lowest page table level.

The kernel test robot reported that we need "/proc/pid/numa_pgtable" ?! :)

Just drop that unless it's a follow-up fix.

s/talbe/table/

but the comment somehow doesn't make sense. We don't display a page table.
