Hi Michal,

Thx for the comments :-)

Actually whatever the memory node sets or cpu allow sets is, it will
take effect on task's behavior regarding memory location and cpu
location, while the locality only care about the results rather than
the sets.

For example if we bind tasks to cpus of node 0 and memory allow only
the node 1, by cgroup controller or madvise, then they will running
on node 0 with all the memory on node 1, on each PF for numa balancing,
the task will access page on node 1 from node 0 remotely, so the
locality will always be 0.

Yeah, we realized the cpu cgroup could be a better place to hold these
new statistics, both locality and exectime are task's running behavior,
related to memory location but not the memory behavior, will apply in
next version.
