How about just replace u8 with u32? This function has its purpose to
be lived, on x86/ia64, ACPI core will get the physcal cpu ID via
ACPI handle, then pass it to the arch specific mapping function
to map the physcal cpu ID with logical cpu ID for the new added
CPU, so when ACPI based CPU hot-plug is introduced on ARM64, we
need to go back to that solution.

I don't think we need to return the error value here, in ACPI
core, it will stop the MADT scanning once it returned the error
value, but actually we can skip some disabled GICC (cpu) entries
and find all the enabled ones in MADT, for example,

cpu0 entry, with flag enabled
cpu1 entry, disabled  - if we return the error value, table scanning
                         will stop
cpu2 entry, enabled   - and this cpu will be ignored

Thanks
