[PATCH -v2] x86, smp: Fix topology checks on AMD MCM

From: Borislav Petkov
Date: Wed Jun 06 2012 - 11:30:59 EST


From: Borislav Petkov <borislav.petkov@xxxxxxx>

The warning below triggers on AMD MCM packages because physical package
IDs on the cores of a _physical_ socket are the same. I.e., this field
says which CPUs belong to the same physical package.

However, the same two CPUs belong to two different internal, i.e.
"logical" nodes in the same physical socket which is reflected in the
CPU-to-node map on x86 with NUMA.

Which makes this check wrong on the above topologies so circumvent it.

This is -v2, we ran a topology sanity check test we have here on it and
it all looks ok... hopefully :).
