Hi,
With recent M.Rapoport set of fake-numa patches in mm-everything
and using numa=fake=4 boot parameter :

Why are all CPUs indicated as belonging to all nodes? Is that expected
or a BUG?
This behaviour comes from original fake-numa implementation, and has
been left as is by M.Rapoport recent fake-numa changes.
I would have thought, just like memory, that one resource only belongs
to one NUMA node.
"All fake-NUMA nodes that belong to a physical NUMA node share the same
CPU cores", this was already the case in original/x86-only
implementation so that fake-NUMA does not affect application launch
commands.
With recent M.Rapoport set of fake-numa patches in mm-everything,
this patch on top, using numa=fake=4 boot parameter :
# numactl —hardware
available: 12 nodes (0-11)

^ Is this where your driver hotplugged a single node and hotplugged memory?
Yes, Node 4 is a GPU node and its memory has been hotplugged by the driver.
