This is broken, IIRC Lorenzo commented on this in the previous version of the
patch.

Ditto here.

Take a simple example of system with 2 Quad core clusters.
The mpidr_hash.shift_aff[1] will be 6 as you need minimum 2 bits to represent
aff[0]. So you will end up with second cluster with id = 4 instead of 1.

I am not sure if we need this serialization, but even if we need it you can't
simply use the hash bits generated for MPIDR.Aff{3..0} serialization directly
as is for serializing parts of it.
