Public bug reported:

[Impact]
CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING and CONFIG_NUMA_BALANCING_DEFAULT_ENABLED were both set 
to =y in hwe-x/hwe-y. This changed to =n in hwe-z, unintentionally as far as I 
can tell. This can lead to performance degradation on NUMA-based arm64 systems 
when processes migrate, and their memory accesses now suffer additional latency.

[Test Case]
At a functional level:

test -f /proc/sys/kernel/numabalancing

Performance?

[Regression Risk]
