The optional _PXM method evaluates to an integer that identifies the
proximity domain of a device object. On ACPI based kernel boot, the
field numa_node in 'struct device' is always set to -1 irrespective
of _PXM value that is specified in the ACPI device object. But in
case of device-tree based kernel boot the numa_node field is populated
and reflects to a DT property that is specified in DTS according to
the below document.

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/of/device.c#L54
Without this patch dev_to_node() always returns a value of -1 for all
platform devices. This patch implements support for ACPI _PXM method
and updates the platform device numa node id using acpi_get_node(),
which provides the PXM to NUMA mapping information. The individual
platform device drivers should be able to use the NUMA aware memory
allocation functions kmalloc_node() and alloc_pages_node() to improve
the performance.

Changes since v1: Edited commit text.
Not all the platform devices are attached to NUMA node 0 on Qualcomm
Datacenter Technologies server chips. Platform device drivers needs
to be aware of NUMA information to improve performance.
