Stephen: I think you're probably right that this is a dupe, although I think the problem is stated more clearly in this one than in 1439247.

I think it's a cop-out to say "don't schedule numa-topology and non-numa-topology instances on the same compute node". I mean, the way the code is written currently its not safe, but I think we *should* try to make it safe.

Specifically for edge scenarios, we may only have a small number of compute nodes (sometimes just one or two) and so any host-aggregate-based solution doesn't really work. We need to be able to have these things co-exist on a single compute node.

Specifically for 4K memory, this means either disabling "strict" NUMA affinity, or else restricting floating instances to a single NUMA node.
