ACPI 6.2 adds the Processor Properties Topology Table (PPTT), which is
used to describe the processor and cache topology. Ideally it is
used to extend/override information provided by the hardware, but
right now ARM64 is entirely dependent on firmware provided tables.

This patch parses the table for the cache topology and CPU topology.
New in the v4 we rename the topology cluster_id to physical_id
to match the kernel macro using it, and as its unlikley to actually
map to a cluster on an ACPI system. When we enable ACPI/PPTT for
arm64 we map the physical_id to the PPTT node flagged as the
physical package by the firmware. This results in topologies that
match what the remainder of the system expects.

For example on juno:

    L2 L#0 (1024KB)
      L1d L#0 (32KB) + L1i L#0 (32KB) + Core L#0 + PU L#0 (P#0)

http://linux-arm.org/git?p=linux-jlinton.git
branch: pptt_v4

v3->v4:
Suppress the "Found duplicate cache level/type..." message if the
  duplicate cache entry is actually a duplicate node. This allows cases
  like L1I and L1D nodes that point at the same L2 node to be accepted
  without the warning.
  
Remove cluster/physical split code. Add a patch to rename cluster_id
  so that its clear the topology may not be referring to a cluster.
  
Add additional ACPICA patch for the PPTT cache properties. This matches
  an outstanding ACPICA pull that should be merged in the near future.
  
Replace a number of (struct*)((u8*)ptr+offset) constructs with ACPI_ADD_PTR

Split out the topology parsing into an additional patch.

Tweak the cpu topology code to terminate on either a level, or a flag.
  Add an additional function which retrives the physical package id
  for a given cpu.

Various other comments/tweaks.

v2->v3:

Remove valid bit check on leaf nodes. Now simply being a leaf node
  is sufficient to verify the processor id against the ACPI
  processor ids (gotten from MADT). 

Use the acpi processor for the "level 0" Id. This makes the /sys
  visible core/thread ids more human readable if the firmware uses
  small consecutive values for processor ids.

Added PPTT to the list of injectable ACPI tables.

Fix bug which kept the code from using the processor node as intended
  in v2, caused by misuse of git rebase/fixup.

v1->v2:

The parser keys off the acpi_pptt_processor node to determine
  unique cache's rather than the acpi_pptt_cache referenced by the
  processor node. This allows PPTT tables which "share" cache nodes
  across cpu nodes despite not being a shared cache.

Normalize the socket, cluster and thread mapping so that they match
  linux's traditional mapping for the physical id, and thread id.
  Adding explicit scheduler knowledge of clusters (rather than just
  their cache sharing attributes) is a subject for a future patch.

Why can't this be in generic acpi header

#ifdef CONFIG_ACPI_PPTT
int acpi_find_last_cache_level(unsigned int cpu)
#else
static int acpi_find_last_cache_level(unsigned int cpu) { return 0; }
#endif

or something similar to of_find_last_cache_level. I don't see why this
has to be ARM64 specific.

Better to keep any arm64 related changes in a separate patch.

I am thinking it's better to even separate the DT and ACPI PPTT related
changes. First refactor DT code renaming or adding new cacheinfo elements.
Then add ACPI PPTT related changes. It helps to keep changes small at a
time and easy for bisection in case of any issues.

I would prefer
	struct device_node *of_node;
changed to 
	struct fwnode_handle *fwnode;

You can then have
	struct pptt_fwnode {
		<.....>
		/*below fwnode  allocated using acpi_alloc_fwnode_static */
		struct fwnode_handle *fwnode;
	};

This gives a good starting point to abstract DT and ACPI.

If not now, we can later implement fwnode.ops=pptt_cache_ops and then
use get property for both DT and ACPI.

If I followed the series correctly, this function is used in 2/9 already.
So this needs to be moved down in the series to avoid build failure during
bisection.

I'm obviously confused why this keeps coming up. On the surface it 
sounds like a good idea. But then, given that I've actually implemented 
a portion of it, what becomes clear is that the PPTT isn't a good match. 
Converting the OF routines to use the fwnode is fairly straightforward, 
but that doesn't help the ACPI situation other than to create a lot of 
misleading code (and the possibility of creating nonstandard DSDT 
entries). The fact that this hasn't been done for other tables 
MADT/SLIT/SRAT/etc makes me wonder why we should do it for the PPTT?

Particularly, when one considers fwnode is more a DSDT<->DT abstraction 
and thus has a lot of API surface that simply doesn't make any sense 
given the PPTT binary tree structure. Given that most of the fwnode 
routines are translating string properties (for example 
fwnode_property_read_string()) it might be possible to build a 
translator of some form which takes DT style properties and attempts to 
map them to the ACPI PPTT tree. What this adds I can't fathom, beyond 
the fact that suddenly the fwnode interface is a partial/brittle 
implementation where a large subset of the fwnode_operations will tend 
to be degenerate cases. The result likely will be a poorly implemented 
translator which breaks or is meaningless over a large part of the 
fwnode API surface.

IRQ/IORT does use it. If we don't want to use it fine. But the union
doesn't make sense and breaks the flow many other subsystems follow.
Hence I raised. Sorry, I hadn't followed the last revision/discussion on
this, my bad. But I had this thought since the beginning, hence I
brought this up.

Sure, I just mentioned ops thing, but that's optional. I just didn't
like the union which has of_node and void ptr instead of fwhandle. I am
fine if many agree that it's bad idea to use fwhandle here.
