Commit ca74b316df ("arm: Use common cpu_topology structure and
functions.") changed cpu_coregroup_mask() from the ARM32 specific
implementation in arch/arm/include/asm/topology.h to the one shared
with ARM64 and RISCV in drivers/base/arch_topology.c.
Currently on ARM32 (TC2 w/ CONFIG_SCHED_MC) the task scheduler setup
code (w/ CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG) shows this during CPU hotplug:
ERROR: groups don't span domain->span
It happens to CPUs of the cluster of the CPU which gets hot-plugged
out on scheduler domain MC.
Turns out that the shared cpu_coregroup_mask() requires that the
hot-plugged CPU is removed from the core_sibling mask via
remove_cpu_topology(). Otherwise the 'is core_sibling subset of
cpumask_of_node()' doesn't work. In this case the task scheduler has to
deal with cpumask_of_node instead of core_sibling which is wrong on
scheduler domain MC.
e.g. CPU3 hot-plugged out on TC2 [cluster0: 0,3-4 cluster1: 1-2]:
cpu_coregroup_mask(): CPU3 cpumask_of_node=0-2,4 core_sibling=0,3-4
^
should be:
cpu_coregroup_mask(): CPU3 cpumask_of_node=0-2,4 core_sibling=0,4
Add remove_cpu_topology() to __cpu_disable() to remove the CPU from the
topology masks in case of a CPU hotplug out operation.
At the same time tweak store_cpu_topology() slightly so it will call
update_siblings_masks() in case of CPU hotplug in operation via
secondary_start_kernel()->smp_store_cpu_info().
This aligns the ARM32 implementation with the ARM64 one.
Guarding remove_cpu_topology() with CONFIG_GENERIC_ARCH_TOPOLOGY is
necessary since some Arm32 defconfigs (aspeed_g5_defconfig,
milbeaut_m10v_defconfig, spear13xx_defconfig) specify an explicit
# CONFIG_ARM_CPU_TOPOLOGY is not set
w/ ./arch/arm/Kconfig: select GENERIC_ARCH_TOPOLOGY if ARM_CPU_TOPOLOGY

For arm checking for !cap_parsing_failed before calling normalize_
cpu_capacity() is superfluous, as returning an error from parse_
cpu_capacity() (above) means cap_from _dt is set to false.
For arm64 we can simply check if raw_capacity points to something,

It is better not to think about compute capacity as being equivalent
to "CPU power". The upcoming "power aware" scheduler work may create
confusion with the notion of energy consumption if "power" is used too
liberally.
This contains the architecture visible changes. Incidentally, only ARM
takes advantage of the available pow^H^H^Hcapacity scaling hooks and
therefore those changes outside kernel/sched/ are confined to one ARM
specific file. The default arch_scale_smt_power() hook is not overridden
by anyone.
Replacements are as follows:
arch_scale_freq_power --> arch_scale_freq_capacity
arch_scale_smt_power --> arch_scale_smt_capacity
SCHED_POWER_SCALE --> SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE
SCHED_POWER_SHIFT --> SCHED_CAPACITY_SHIFT
The local usage of "power" in arch/arm/kernel/topology.c is also changed
to "capacity" as appropriate.

Currently the topology code computes cpu capacity and stores it in
the list along with hwid(which is MPIDR) as it parses the CPU nodes
in the device tree. This is required as it needs to be mapped to the
logical CPU later.
Since the CPU device nodes can be retrieved in the logical ordering
using DT/OF helpers, its possible to store cpu_capacity also in logical
ordering and avoid storing hwid for each entry.
This patch removes hwid by making use of of_get_cpu_node.
