x86/acpi: Enable MADT APIs to return disabled apicids
The whole patch-set aims at making cpuid <-> nodeid mapping persistent. So that,
when node online/offline happens, cache based on cpuid <-> nodeid mapping such as
wq_numa_possible_cpumask will not cause any problem.
It contains 4 steps:
1. Enable apic registeration flow to handle both enabled and disabled cpus.
2. Introduce a new array storing all possible cpuid <-> apicid mapping.
3. Enable _MAT and MADT relative apis to return non-present or disabled cpus' apicid.
4. Establish all possible cpuid <-> nodeid mapping.
This patch finishes step 3.
There are four mappings in the kernel:
1. nodeid (logical node id) <-> pxm (persistent)
2. apicid (physical cpu id) <-> nodeid (persistent)
3. cpuid (logical cpu id) <-> apicid (not persistent, now persistent by step 2)
4. cpuid (logical cpu id) <-> nodeid (not persistent)
So, in order to setup persistent cpuid <-> nodeid mapping for all possible CPUs,
we should:
1. Setup cpuid <-> apicid mapping for all possible CPUs, which has been done in step 1, 2.
2. Setup cpuid <-> nodeid mapping for all possible CPUs. But before that, we should
obtain all apicids from MADT.
All processors' apicids can be obtained by _MAT method or from MADT in ACPI.
The current code ignores disabled processors and returns -ENODEV.
After this patch, a new parameter will be added to MADT APIs so that caller
is able to control if disabled processors are ignored.
