Add accessors for nodes[] and other static variables and
use those accessors. These variables are later accessed
outside the file when the code made generic in later
patches. However the coding style is not changed.

They should all be inline functions. And maybe at once lift to a header
and add proper prefix since you mention they are going to be used later.

Currently these are static variables in x86/srat.c file.
In patch #9 I move them to common/numa.c file and make these functions
non-static.

If I lift them to header file and make inline, then I have to make these as
global variables.

As I said on v2, I am not sure to understand the usefulness of those accessors over global variables...

You don't have any kind of sanity check, so they would do exactly the same job. The global variables would avoid so much churn.

More that you tend to sometimes use global and other time static helpers...
