I'm not sure it's worth noting in a comment or just in the dialogue that
none of these MPIDR values is literally the value in the MPIDR. Linux
doesn't store that anyway (even in the cpu_logical_map), since it is
pre-filtered against MPIDR_HWID_BITMASK to remove the non-affinity level
bits. And since the ACPI5.1 specification requires that non-affinity
bits be zero everything works. But it relies upon this assumption so it
might be worth explicitly masking out the bits when making the call into:

       acpi_map_gic_cpu_interface(processor->arm_mpidr,
               processor->flags & ACPI_MADT_ENABLED);

During the parsing of the processor object's MPIDR value.
