Architectures that describe the CPU topology in devicetree and do not have
an identity mapping between physical and logical CPU ids must override the
default implementation of arch_match_cpu_phys_id().
Failing to do so breaks CPU devicetree-node lookups using of_get_cpu_node()
and of_cpu_device_node_get() which several drivers rely on. It also causes
the CPU struct devices exported through sysfs to point to the wrong
devicetree nodes.
On x86, CPUs are described in devicetree using their APIC ids and those
do not generally coincide with the logical ids, even if CPU0 typically
uses APIC id 0.
Add the missing implementation of arch_match_cpu_phys_id() so that CPU-node
lookups work also with SMP.
Apart from fixing the broken sysfs devicetree-node links this likely does
not affect current users of mainline kernels on x86.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
