[PATCH] drm/ttm: Schedule delayed_delete worker closer

When a TTM BO is getting freed, to optimize the clearing operation on
the workqueue, schedule it closer to a NUMA node where the memory was
allocated. This avoids the cases where the ttm_bo_delayed_delete gets
scheduled on the CPU cores that are across interconnect boundaries such
as xGMI, PCIe etc.

This change helps USWC GTT allocations on NUMA systems (dGPU) and AMD
APU platforms such as GFXIP9.4.3.
