[RFC PATCH 0/8] Introduce logical CPU mapping

Hello,

This patch series is an RFC following a discussion I had with Russell
the other day:

 http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2011-August/060370.html

The approach I've taken is fairly simple but is enough for booting on a
CPU with physical ID != 0 on platforms which can handle it.

Note that I haven't touched the OMAP4 or Tegra platforms since it's not
clear from the code how they would be adapted to make use of the
physical CPU number.

I've tested this with a Cortex-A9 on the vexpress platform but other
platforms have been compile-tested only.

This is an RFC, so I'd value any feedback or comments.

Thanks,

Will
