Subject: [PATCH] Make LXC / UML drivers robust against NUMA topology brokenness
Some kernel versions expose broken NUMA topology for some machines.
This causes the LXC/UML drivers to fail to start. QEMU driver was
already fixed for this problem
* src/lxc_conf.c: Log and ignore failure to populate NUMA info
* src/uml_conf.c: Log and ignore failure to populate NUMA info
* src/capabilities.c: Reset nnumaCell to 0 after freeing
(cherry picked from commit 19bac57b26c2d46ac8a7601158f210f34acdceac)
Fedora-patch: libvirt-0.7.0-numa-ignore-fail.patch
