Without this change.

With this change.
$ grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu8/topology/{die*,package*} 2> /dev/null
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu8/topology/die_cpus:0000,0000ff00

/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu8/topology/package_cpus_list:8-31

snipped lstopo-no-graphics o/p
Group0 L#0
Package L#1
NUMANode L#1 (P#2 8135MB)
Die L#0 + Core L#1

Die L#0 -> Here L# indicates logical die number.
One should run --verbose to see theactual die_id.

For example:
Die L#8 (P#25) --> die_id is 25.


Maybe you could the same CPU's (CPU8) info of lstopo here?


L3 L#2 (4096KB) + L2 L#2 (1024KB) + L1d L#2 (32KB) + L1i L#2 (48KB)
PU L#8 (P#8)

nit:

can we fix the tab spacing here please? Maybe like below?

As you have mentioned in the changelog, could you add a comment here
explaining on which systems we see this information correctly.
