+Description: Directory with details of a specific memory tier
+
+ This is the directory containing information about a particular
+ memory tier, memtierN, where N is derived based on abstract distance.
+
+ A smaller value of N implies a higher (faster) memory tier in the
+ hierarchy.
+
+ nodes: NUMA nodes that are part of this memory tier.
