In EPYC architecture, in a single die we have 2 core complexes.
 Each core complex has 4 cores at max(CORES_IN_CMPLX).
Without SMT(thread=1), L3 is shared between 4(4x1) cores.
   NUM_SHARING_CACHE should be 3.
With SMT(thread=2), L3 is shared between 8(4x2) cores.
  NUM_SHARING_CACHE should be 7.
This is what we are trying to achieve here. This is a fixed h/w configuration.

We cannot achieve the above numbers if we use this logic.
For example.. with nr_cores = 8, nr_threads=2. 
  This will report (8x2)-1=15 which is not what we want.
