Yeah this is still broken on both machines, sometimes faster sometimes slower 
to reproduce.
So to summarize we have bug 1832915 reported and a fix created.
But we also have bug 1836913 and potentially a whole set of bugs due to the 
same conceptual mismatches (assumption in code: numa zones would be linearly 
indexed, but that isn't true on power).


And all of this on a project that seems sort of dead upstream.
We will keep things as-is for there are systems not affected by this.
going forward we will carry the patches for this bug, but knowing that there is 
more that will affect power systems with their numa setup.

The SRUs will go to Incomplete - as we'd need to really fix the extended
issues to make the backport worth anything.

To do so one would need to spend a significant upstream dev effort on bug 
1836913.
That would (if anyone) in my POV be the HW-enablement Team of the ppc64 
platform.
So that would be inside IBM I guess?
