Why not?

Or, more formally: please state the rationale for keeping them.

at least one distribution: SLES 11 mess it up when BSP is from socket
1 instead of socket0

and above message does show kernel think BSP still from socket0, and
other cores in that package are from socket1.

[ 1.601924] Booting Node 0, Processors #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 Ok.

How does one imply Socket 1 from Node 0?

I added the socket and core id for BSP. I think cluttering up output
with useless additional information that is easily available is not
worthwhile.
