During recent patch discussion [1] it became apparent that the "other_node" definition in the numastat documentation has always been different from actual implementation. It was also noted that the stats can be innacurate on systems with memoryless nodes. This patch corrects the other_node definition (with minor tweaks to two more definitions), adds a note about memoryless nodes and also two introductory paragraphs to the numastat documentation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
