even smp init assumes cpu0/boot processor.
is this patch tested on any hardware?
can you describe your testing hardware?

do you see this init of setting node id to NUMA_NO_NODE  for each cpu
happening any where else?
otherwise, better to have initialised node id/NUMA_NO_NODE to every
cpu otherwise default  node id will be shown as zero
which is not correct.

otherwise, how you set numa info for cpu0/boot-processor?
