It is quite likely that 0 and 1 are not real MPIDR values for CPU cores on 
Exynos5250, because cluster ID might not be 0, as one could expect.

This is what I found out on Exynos4210 and 4x12, when trying to add CPU 
nodes in DT for them, leading in turn to a series of regressions, for which 
it was to late to do all the necessary code rework to fix them for 3.12, so 
I had to defer this work for next release.

Best regards,
Tomasz
