This adds a "ibm,chip-id" property for CPU nodes which should be the same
for all cores in the same CPU socket. The recent guest kernels use this
information to associate threads with sockets.

Refer to the kernel commit 256f2d4b463d3030ebc8d2b54f427543814a2bdc
for more details.

Have you verified this works correctly with threads?
Sorry, do not follow you.
-smp X,sockets=Y,threads=Z - what combination of XYZ is suspicious?

No, I think it works. Does it work for non-power-of-2 socket numbers?



Also, I don't see why
we should omit the chip-id when we don't define sockets.
Why should we pollute device tree...

What does pHyp do? If we say we don't want to "pollute the device tree" for the sockets=1 case then this should be explicit. Right now we put the chip-id in when you say sockets=1, but not if you omit it.
