Ok, there are 10 CFMWS entries and 4 host bridges in cedt.dsl.
Below is the information for all CFMWS entries and host bridge in the CEDT:

In my understanding, the reason we are seeing 12 NUMA node is because
it loops through node_states[N_POSSIBLE] and its value is 4095 (twelves ones)
in the code [1] below:
for_each_node_state(nid, N_POSSIBLE) {
err = add_weight_node(nid, wi_kobj);
if (err) {
pr_err("failed to add sysfs [node%d]\n", nid);
break;
}
}
Since I'm not familiar with the CEDT, I'm wondering if you mean that N_POSSIBLE
is associated with the number of CFMWS.
