Hi Vivek,

Thank you for the feedback.

I tested that combination and it compiled properly. The reason is that
hard_smp_processor_id is not used anywhere in the kernel when
CONFIG_X86_LOCAL_APIC=n and CONFIG_SMP=n.

I tested all the combinations (including voyager) and everything seems
to work as expected.

Regards,

Fernando
