pc: ACPI BIOS: use highest NUMA node for hotplug mem hole SRAT entry
For reasons unknown, Windows won't online all memory, both at command line and hot-plugged later, unless the hotplug mem hole SRAT entry specifies a node greater than or equal to the ones where memory is added. Using the highest node on the machine makes recent versions of Windows happy. With this example command line: ... \ -m 1024,slots=4,maxmem=32G \ -numa node,nodeid=0 \ -numa node,nodeid=1 \ -numa node,nodeid=2 \ -numa node,nodeid=3 \ -object memory-backend-ram,size=1G,id=mem-mem1 \ -device pc-dimm,id=dimm-mem1,memdev=mem-mem1,node=1 Windows reports a total of 1G of RAM without this commit and the expected 2G with this commit.
