Some of the virtual devices we have (that use devm) really ought to set
the node too, like drivers/base/cpu.c and driver/base/node.c and
arguably the cooling devices too (they create a device per cpu).

The patch I had here:

  https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190925214526.GA4643@worktop.programming.kicks-ass.net

takes the more radical approach of requiring a node, except when
explicitly marked not (the fake devices that don't use devm for
example).

But yes, PCI and other physical busses really should be having a node
set, no excuses.

Anyway, I don't think non-physical devices actually use
cpumask_of_node() much, a quick grep didn't show any.
