Evaluating the patch is a little involved (especially if you're not familiar with compiling the Linux kernel):

Download the .mbox file for the kernel patch thread.
Apply it to your raspberrypi/linux checkout with git am [filename.mbox]
Rebuild the Linux kernel, ensuring NUMA Emulation is enabled in the kernel config.
Add numa=fake=4 to /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt before the rootwait option, and reboot.
Prefix any commands you want to test with numactl, e.g.: numactl --interleave=all ./geekbench6. (Install numactl with sudo apt install -y numactl.)

There is no /boot/firmware on pine Smile
