suppose there are two devices dev1 and dev2, each has NUMA Nodes associated as below:
dev1: numa1
dev2: numa1, numa2
and we request a device from numa2, currently filterByAffinity() will return
[], [dev1, dev2], [] if loop of available devices produce a sequence of [dev1, dev2],
that is is not desirable as what we truely expect is an allocation of dev2 from numa2.
