Subject[PATCH 4.9 042/120] x86/CPU/AMD: Fix Bulldozer topology
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Borislav Petkov <bp@suse.de>

commit a33d331761bc5dd330499ca5ceceb67f0640a8e6 upstream.

The following commit:

8196dab4fc15 ("x86/cpu: Get rid of compute_unit_id")

... broke the initial strategy for Bulldozer-based cores' topology,
where we consider each thread of a compute unit a standalone core
and not a HT or SMT thread.

Revert to the firmware-supplied core_id numbering and do not make
them thread siblings as we don't consider them for such even if they
technically are, more or less.
