Previously, numa_off was set unconditionally in dummy_numa_init()
even with a fake numa node. Then ACPI sets node id as NUMA_NO_NODE(-1)
after acpi_map_pxm_to_node() because it regards numa_off as turning
off the numa node. Hence dev_dax->target_node is NUMA_NO_NODE on
arm64 with fake numa case.
Without this patch, pmem can't be probed as RAM devices on arm64 if
SRAT table isn't present:
$ndctl create-namespace -fe namespace0.0 --mode=devdax --map=dev -s 1g -a 64K
kmem dax0.0: rejecting DAX region [mem 0x240400000-0x2bfffffff] with invalid node: -1
kmem: probe of dax0.0 failed with error -22
This fixes it by using fallback memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() as nid.

v2: - rebase it based on David's "memory group" patch.
- drop the changes in dev_dax_kmem_remove() since nid had been
removed in remove_memory().

This fallback change belongs where the parent region for the namespace
adopts its target_node, because it's not clear
memory_add_physaddr_to_nid() is the right fallback in all situations.
Here is where this setting is happening currently:
drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c:3004: ndr_desc->target_node =
pxm_to_node(spa->proximity_domain);
drivers/acpi/nfit/core.c:3007: ndr_desc->target_node = NUMA_NO_NODE;
drivers/nvdimm/e820.c:29: ndr_desc.target_node = nid;
drivers/nvdimm/of_pmem.c:58: ndr_desc.target_node =
ndr_desc.numa_node;
drivers/nvdimm/region_devs.c:1127: nd_region->target_node =
ndr_desc->target_node;
...where is this pmem region originating on this arm64 platform?

On my local arm64 guest('virt' machine type), the target_node is
set to -1 at this line.
That is:
The condition "spa->flags & ACPI_NFIT_PROXIMITY_VALID" is hit.

Sorry,Dan. I thought I missed your previous mail:
=========================================
Looks like it is the NFIT driver, thanks.
If you're getting NUMA_NO_NODE in dax_kmem from the NFIT driver in
means your ACPI NFIT table is failing to populate correct numa
information. You could try the following to fix it up, but I think the
real problem is that your platform BIOS needs to add the proper numa
data.

Are you saying that ACPI_NFIT_PROXIMITY_VALID is not set on your
platform, or that pxm_to_node() returns NUMA_NO_NODE?
I would expect something like this:
