[PATCH 2/2] Documentation/ABI: Move the topology-related sysfs interface to the right place
From: Tian Tao
Date: Thu Apr 29 2021 - 03:03:44 EST
Move the interface that exists under
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/topology/ to the more logical
Documentation/ABI/ file that can be properly parsed and
displayed to the user space

Architecture-neutral, drivers/base/topology.c, exports these attributes.
