Hi Hanjun,
Thanks for the clarification and some little comments ;-)

Right, kernel will record the logical cpu index info (begins from 0,
the boot cpu) into the cpu_possible bit map by parsing the MADT GICC
sub-table. So I am thinking here if we can reduce the parsing walk by
only one, because I see the acpi_numa_gicc_affinity_init() calls
get_mpidr_in_madt() to traverse the entire MADT, actually the kernel
will also traverse the MADT in smp_init_cpus(), merge them into one?

Hmm, I think I made a mistake presumption here that the ACPI processor
UID is the logical processor number, just take a look at the ACPI
processor driver module code, the logic process number should comes
from the bit map. And from the below output message pasted by David,
we can see that his firmware is using MPIDR as the ACPI processor UID,
it's not incorrect implementation according to the ACPI spec...

I think you may remove the *cpu* in the print, indeed it's pointless.
You can, IMO, use cpu_possible bitmask if you want to get the logical
processor number just as the ACPI processor does. About the
early_node_cpu_hwid, the only reason I can see now is to map logic cpu
into the numa node number, can we refer to the implementation under
x86, anyway I am not sure since not very familiar with that codes
dependency...
