You are ignoring cpupools. This could result in pinning vcpus to
physical cpus not available for the domU.
An easy solution would be to skip numa optimization if cpupools are
active (see comment below).

You should add something like this here:

libxl_cpupoolinfo *poolinfo;
int n_pools;

poolinfo = libxl_list_cpupool(ctx, &n_pools);
for (i = 0; i < n_pools; i++) {
    libxl_cpupoolinfo_destroy(poolinfo + i);
}
if (n_pools > 1) {
    printf("cpupools are being used - skip numa optimization.\n");
    return 0;
}
