Pseudo-consistent at best - there's no reason to believe that the node
a physical page appears to live on (by looking up its address in the SRAT)
has any relationship to the node it really lives on.
And even if that was the case, you could easily end up with many (up to
all but one) nodes appearing unpopulated (due to dom0_mem=).

That doesn't help you with the node ID issue: The tools can make
meaningful use of Xen node IDs; if you want to do this in the kernel
you'll have to establish a kernel<->Xen translation of node IDs.
