Currently, when defining a HMAT cache for a NUMA node (in
parse_numa_hmat_cache()) there is this check that forces users to
define HMAT latency/bandwidth first. There is no real need for
this, because nothing in the parse function relies on that and
the HMAT table is constructed way later - when ACPI table is
constructed.

in short doing check at this time allow us not to have more complex
check later on.
perhaps it needs a comment so that later it won't be dropped by accident
