This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    arm64: topology: move store_cpu_topology() to shared code

to the 5.4-stable tree which can be found at:
    http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary

The filename of the patch is:
     arm64-topology-move-store_cpu_topology-to-shared-code.patch
and it can be found in the queue-5.4 subdirectory.

If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree,
please let <stable at vger.kernel.org> know about it.

From: Conor Dooley <conor.dooley at microchip.com>

commit 456797da792fa7cbf6698febf275fe9b36691f78 upstream.

arm64's method of defining a default cpu topology requires only minimal
changes to apply to RISC-V also. The current arm64 implementation exits
early in a uniprocessor configuration by reading MPIDR & claiming that
uniprocessor can rely on the default values.

This is appears to be a hangover from prior to '3102bc0e6ac7 ("arm64:
topology: Stop using MPIDR for topology information")', because the
current code just assigns default values for multiprocessor systems.

With the MPIDR references removed, store_cpu_topolgy() can be moved to
the common arch_topology code.
