TWIMC, I noticed a bug report with a "12 × 12th Gen Intel® Core™
i7-1255U" where the reporter also noticed a lot of messages like these:

archlinux kernel: [Firmware Bug]: CPU4: Topology domain 1 shift 7 != 6
archlinux kernel: [Firmware Bug]: CPU4: Topology domain 2 shift 7 != 6
archlinux kernel: [Firmware Bug]: CPU4: Topology domain 3 shift 7 != 6

Asked the reporter to test this patch. For details see:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218879

Ciao, Thorsten
