1)

It's a bit sad that we are duplicating identical code.

2)

We are doing it in other cases as well: for example nearby_node() is 
duplicated between arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c and 
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/hygon.c too.

3)

BTW., while look at this code I noticed that the 'Author' copyright
tag in arch/x86/kernel/cpu/hygon.c seems to be inaccurate:

 // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+
 /*
  * Hygon Processor Support for Linux
  *
  * Copyright (C) 2018 Chengdu Haiguang IC Design Co., Ltd.
  *
  * Author: Pu Wen <puwen@xxxxxxxx>
  */     

... as for example the nearby_node() was clearly copied & derived from 
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/amd.c, which does not appear to be accurately reflected 
in this copyright notice?

Thanks,

	Ingo
