   #. Rename ``config/arm/arm64_octeontx2_linux_gcc`` as ``config/arm/arm64_cn9k_linux_gcc``
 
   Last two actions are to align naming convention as cnxk scheme.

+* bus: during devices probing, the ``device->numa_node`` field will be
+  set to SOCKET_ID_ANY when the bus is not able to associate a NUMA node
+  to the device. Some bus drivers like PCI currently defaults to 0 in
+  that case, which can be a problem if this NUMA socket is not used.
+  The behavior will change starting from v22.03.
