I'm personally not in favor of printing some, but not all, of these
messages.  That leads to questions when analyzing a dmesg log, such as
"Hmm, I see I have 64 CPUs, but only 0-3 are registered as cooling
devices.  Does that mean something is wrong?"

But I would be glad to see this particular message removed completely.

I know we print way too much stuff for every processor, but again, I'd
rather see all CPUs or none.  I think there's a little more value in
this one than the cooling device one (probably because I do a lot of
platform bringup), but it could certainly be made KERN_DEBUG and/or
combined with another processor discovery line.
