That's indeed weird. Can you please provide:
- the output of 'cpuid -r'
- the output of /sys/kernel/debug/x86/topo/domains
- the APIC IDs of all CPUs (see below patch)

As the number of cores per package is not consistent, this is not a
surprise. 160/32 = 5, but yes something is fishy there.
Oh. Is this perhaps one of those machines where the APICs are enumerated
twice. Can you apply the patch below?
The ACPI part is a modified variant of:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/23ccb5aad770fb52014dca9fb1e4353b5c3cede9.camel@xxxxxxxxx
Please apply the topology hunks first without the ACPI changes and then
try the ACPI change on top.
Thanks,
tglx
