Thanks for the patch. I applied it but not pushed to -next yet. I wonder whether it makes sense to drop the description of the CPU_TOPOLOGY entry here so that it is no longer selectable. It will be enabled by default when SMP (I can do the change myself, no need to repost).

I'm totally fine with that, I only made it selectable due to the 32 bit code doing that - I'm not sure we even need the separate symbol. Whatever you prefer.

Like that?

From: Mark Brown <[email protected]>

Add basic CPU topology support to arm64, based on the existing pre-v8 code and some work done by Mark Hambleton. This patch does not implement any topology discovery support since that should be based on information from firmware, it merely implements the scaffolding for integration of topology support in the architecture.

No locking of the topology data is done since it is only modified during CPU bringup with external serialisation from the SMP code.

The goal is to separate the architecture hookup for providing topology information from the DT parsing in order to ease review and avoid blocking the architecture code (which will be built on by other work) with the DT code review by providing something simple and basic.

Following patches will implement support for interpreting topology information from MPIDR and for parsing the DT topology bindings for ARM, similar patches will be needed for ACPI.
