commit fbd92809997a391f28075f1c8b5ee314c225557c upstream.

RISC-V has no sane defaults to fall back on where there is no cpu-map
in the devicetree.
Without sane defaults, the package, core and thread IDs are all set to
-1. This causes user-visible inaccuracies for tools like hwloc/lstopo
which rely on the sysfs cpu topology files to detect a system's
topology.

On a PolarFire SoC, which should have 4 harts with a thread each,
lstopo currently reports:

Machine (793MB total)
  Package L#0
    NUMANode L#0 (P#0 793MB)
    Core L#0
      L1d L#0 (32KB) + L1i L#0 (32KB) + PU L#0 (P#0)
      L1d L#1 (32KB) + L1i L#1 (32KB) + PU L#1 (P#1)
      L1d L#2 (32KB) + L1i L#2 (32KB) + PU L#2 (P#2)
      L1d L#3 (32KB) + L1i L#3 (32KB) + PU L#3 (P#3)

Adding calls to store_cpu_topology() in {boot,smp} hart bringup code
results in the correct topolgy being reported:

Machine (793MB total)
  Package L#0
    NUMANode L#0 (P#0 793MB)
    L1d L#0 (32KB) + L1i L#0 (32KB) + Core L#0 + PU L#0 (P#0)
    L1d L#1 (32KB) + L1i L#1 (32KB) + Core L#1 + PU L#1 (P#1)
    L1d L#2 (32KB) + L1i L#2 (32KB) + Core L#2 + PU L#2 (P#2)
    L1d L#3 (32KB) + L1i L#3 (32KB) + Core L#3 + PU L#3 (P#3)
