What now?

get_online_cpus() is enough.

I think you want something like this: iterate over each core and put one
of them into the mask.

	core = -1;

	for_each_online_cpu(cpu) {
		this_core = topology_core_id(cpu);

		if (this_core == core)
			continue;

		core = this_core;

		/* get any CPU on this compute unit */
		cpumask_set_cpu(cpumask_any(topology_sibling_cpumask(cpu)), mask);
	}


Btw, tglx, peterz, do you guys think it would make sense to have a
generic helper:

	for_each_core(cpu)

which would give you any of the threads on the core in the @cpu var when
iterating?

I see only arch/x86/events/intel/cstate.c doing any comparisons with
topology_core_id() now but it might be useful...
