    x86/CPU/AMD: Save AMD NodeId as cpu_die_id · 028c221e
    Yazen Ghannam authored
    AMD systems provide a "NodeId" value that represents a global ID
    indicating to which "Node" a logical CPU belongs. The "Node" is a
    physical structure equivalent to a Die, and it should not be confused
    with logical structures like NUMA nodes. Logical nodes can be adjusted
    based on firmware or other settings whereas the physical nodes/dies are
    fixed based on hardware topology.
    
    The NodeId value can be used when a physical ID is needed by software.
    
    Save the AMD NodeId to struct cpuinfo_x86.cpu_die_id. Use the value
    from CPUID or MSR as appropriate. Default to phys_proc_id otherwise.
    Do so for both AMD and Hygon systems.
    
    Drop the node_id parameter from cacheinfo_*_init_llc_id() as it is no
    longer needed.
    
    Update the x86 topology documentation.
