Yes, I agree with you. When I tested this patch set on our
ARM64 platform, I found this problem too. some firmware
will just present the real MPIDR value to OS which some reserved
bit set to 1, and it will lead to some logic problem in this patch.
(actually firmware didn't obey with ACPI spec)
I had updated the patch with:
+ acpi_map_gic_cpu_interface(processor->arm_mpidr & MPIDR_HWID_BITMASK,
+ processor->flags & ACPI_MADT_ENABLED);
and then the problem was gone :)
Thanks
