When a group of tasks that access different nodes are scheduled on the
same node, they may encounter bandwidth bottlenecks and access latency.

Thus, numa_aware flag is introduced here, allowing tasks to be
distributed across different nodes to fully utilize the advantage of
multi-node systems.

Suggest:
Distribute jobs to different nodes with CPU in a round robin fashion.

last_used_nid is only used during boot time so it could be
__init_data. Otherwise, LGTM.
