Nope. I am handling absence of socket nodes and that is a must for backward
compatibility with existing DT.

I don't have much knowledge on scheduler domains and I will defer that to
the experts. I am just trying to get the topology read from DT correct and
to align with PPTT. Though LLC is not yet considered but that is not part
of cpu-map. I am trying to get only the /cpu-map part of topology correct
at first. We(you, me or anyone interested) can get the LLC part updated
after that.
