Kai Huang cf534a09fb KVM: selftests: Increase 'maxnode' for guest_memfd tests
Increase 'maxnode' when using 'get_mempolicy' syscall in guest_memfd
mmap and NUMA policy tests to fix a failure on one Intel GNR platform.

On a CXL-capable platform, the memory affinity of CXL memory regions may
not be covered by the SRAT.  Since each CXL memory region is enumerated
via a CFMWS table, at early boot the kernel parses all CFMWS tables to
detect all CXL memory regions and assigns a 'faked' NUMA node for each
of them, starting from the highest NUMA node ID enumerated via the SRAT.

This increases the 'nr_node_ids'.  E.g., on the aforementioned Intel GNR
platform which has 4 NUMA nodes and 18 CFMWS tables, it increases to 22.

This results in the 'get_mempolicy' syscall failure on that platform,
because currently 'maxnode' is hard-coded to 8 but the 'get_mempolicy'
syscall requires the 'maxnode' to be not smaller than the 'nr_node_ids'.

Increase the 'maxnode' to the number of bits of 'nodemask', which is
'unsigned long', to fix this.

This may not cover all systems.  Perhaps a better way is to always set
the 'nodemask' and 'maxnode' based on the actual maximum NUMA node ID on
the system, but for now just do the simple way.
