This is a mixture of fix and development.  Why not just keep the original calculation?

if the mask cover multiple nodes, NUMA_NO_NODE is the best for pool->node
after the pool was created. The memory allocation will select the best node
for manage_workers(), from which CPU that the worker actually is running on.
