Dan Williams suggested changing the struct 'node_hmem_attrs' to
'access_coordinates' [1]. The struct is a container of r/w-latency and
r/w-bandwidth numbers. Moving forward, this container will also be used by
CXL to store the performance characteristics of each link hop in
the PCIE/CXL topology. So, where node_hmem_attrs is just the access
parameters of a memory-node, access_coordinates applies more broadly
to hardware topology characteristics. The observation is that seemed like
an exercise in having the application identify "where" it falls on a
spectrum of bandwidth and latency needs. For the tuple of
read/write-latency and read/write-bandwidth, "coordinates" is not a perfect
fit. Sometimes it is just conveying values in isolation and not a
"location" relative to other performance points, but in the end this data
is used to identify the performance operation point of a given memory-node.
