[PATCH v2 2/2] arm64: topology: Use PPTT to determine if PE is a thread

From: Jeremy Linton
Date: Fri Jun 14 2019 - 18:37:06 EST


ACPI 6.3 adds a thread flag to represent if a CPU/PE is
actually a thread. Given that the MPIDR_MT bit may not
represent this information consistently on homogeneous machines
we should prefer the PPTT flag if its available.
