Srikar Dronamraju a05f0e5be4 powerpc/smp: Use nid as fallback for package_id
package_id is to match cores that are part of the same chip. On
PowerNV machines, package_id defaults to chip_id. However ibm,chip_id
property is not present in device-tree of PowerVM LPARs. Hence lscpu
output shows one core per socket and multiple cores.

To overcome this, use nid as the package_id on PowerVM LPARs.

Before the patch:

  Architecture:        ppc64le
  Byte Order:          Little Endian

  -1

After the patch:

  Architecture:        ppc64le
  Byte Order:          Little Endian
  CPU(s):              128

  Socket(s):           2
  NUMA node(s):        2
  Model:               2.2 (pvr 004e 0202)

  L2 cache:            512K
  L3 cache:            10240K

  NUMA node1 CPU(s):   64-127
  #
  # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology/physical_package_id
  0

Now lscpu output is more in line with the system configuration.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
