arm64: topology: Fix handling of multi-level cluster MPIDR-based detection

From: Mark Brown <[email protected]>

The only requirement the scheduler has on cluster IDs is that they must be unique. When enumerating the topology based on MPIDR information the kernel currently generates cluster IDs by using the first level of affinity above the core ID (either level one or two depending on if the core has multiple threads) however the ARMv8 architecture allows for up to three levels of affinity. This means that an ARMv8 system may contain cores which have MPIDRs identical other than affinity level three which with current code will cause us to report multiple cores with the same identification to the scheduler in violation of its uniqueness requirement.

Ensure that we do not violate the scheduler requirements on systems that uses all the affinity levels by incorporating both affinity levels two and three into the cluser ID when the cores are not threaded.

While no currently known hardware uses multi-level clusters it is better to program defensively, this will help ease bringup of systems that have them and will ensure that things like distribution install media do not need to be respun to replace kernels in order to deploy such systems. In the worst case the system will work but perform suboptimally until a kernel modified to handle the new topology better is installed, in the best case this will be an adequate description of such topologies for the scheduler to perform well.
