I have reconfirmed it, the MT bit has been set to 1. I am sorry for
the previous messages.
The mpidr parse by store_cpu_topology is correct, at least for the sc9863a.

Yes, I need parse DT cpu-map to create different Phantom Domains.
With it, the dts should be change to:
cpu-map {
cluster0 {
core0 {
cpu = <&CPU0>;
};
core1 {
cpu = <&CPU1>;
};
core2 {
cpu = <&CPU2>;
};
core3 {
cpu = <&CPU3>;
};
};

cluster1 {
core0 {
cpu = <&CPU4>;
};
core1 {
cpu = <&CPU5>;
};
core2 {
cpu = <&CPU6>;
};
core3 {
cpu = <&CPU7>;
};
};
};
