[PATCH 2/2] make node distance writeable

["Joachim Deguara" <joachim.deguara@amd.com>]

This adds the ability to write the node distance for NUMA systems.  This is 
generally handled by the SLIT but unfortunately the large majority of systems 
do not have a SLIT as Windows does not use them. Until now if no SLIT was 
found all remote nodes had a distance of 20 which is ok for 2P systems but 
wrong for 4P and larger.
