It always the logic CPU 0 though the physical number might be different.

This assignment is redundant anyway - the kernel is starting with the array
zeroed. So just remove this entire initialization and do your array
initialization in your mp_ops->smp_setup.
We already do that. I will just delete this section unconditionally.
