[PATCH v3 0/6] Refactoring finding CPU phandles in DT

[Alireza Sanaee]

This series refactor the way CPU IDs are retrieved from the device
tree.

Usually, there is a for loop that goes over every single CPU that can be
avoided. This also reduces the amount of NULL pointer checks in drivers.
I have abstracted away that loop and introduced a new function
(of_cpu_node_to_id) for this.

This patchset is a subset of [1], where I removed content and patches
relevant to hyper-threaded cores for DT. Based on the discussion, the
code refactor is still useful, hence this patchset.

Changes since v2:
    - Addressed Jonathan Cameron's comments.
    - Added reviewed-by tags.
    - Added a new commit where I suggest simplfing the code in
      arch_topology.c to remove the use of cpu_node on failure path.
    - Improve documentation.
    - Caught a bug in patch 1.
    - Commit message fixed for patch 2.

Changes since v1:
    - Rebased on top of the latest mainline.
    - Addressed Krzysztof Kozlowski's comments -- Hopefully :-)
    - Addressed Jonathan Cameron's comments.

Alireza Sanaee (6):
  of: add infra for finding CPU id from phandle
  arch_topology: drop the use of cpu_node in the pr_info
  arch_topology: update CPU map to use of_cpu_phandle_to_id
  coresight: cti: Use of_cpu_phandle_to_id for grabbing CPU id
  coresight: Use of_cpu_phandle_to_id for grabbing CPU ID
  perf/arm-dsu: refactor cpu id retrieval via new API
    of_cpu_phandle_to_id
