For some architectures like ARM64, multiple CPUs in one cluster can be
associated with different NUMA nodes, which is irregular configuration
because we shouldn't have this in baremetal environment. The irregular
configuration causes Linux guest to misbehave, as the following warning
messages indicate.
-smp 6,maxcpus=6,sockets=2,clusters=1,cores=3,threads=1 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0-1,memdev=ram0 \
-numa node,nodeid=1,cpus=2-3,memdev=ram1 \
-numa node,nodeid=2,cpus=4-5,memdev=ram2 \

Improve the situation to warn when multiple CPUs in one cluster have
been associated with different NUMA nodes. However, one NUMA node is
allowed to be associated with different clusters.
