detect_extended_topology() along with it's early() variant is a classic example for duct tape engineering: - It evaluates an array of subleafs with a boatload of local variables for the relevant topology levels instead of using an array to save the enumerated information and propagate it to the right level - It has no boundary checks for subleafs - It prevents updating the die_id with a crude workaround instead of checking for leaf 0xb which does not provide die information. - It's broken vs. the number of dies evaluation as it uses: num_processors[DIE_LEVEL] / num_processors[CORE_LEVEL] which "works" only correctly if there is none of the intermediate topology levels (MODULE/TILE) enumerated. There is zero value in trying to "fix" that code as the only proper fix is to rewrite it from scratch. Implement a sane parser with proper code documentation, which will be used for the consolidated topology evaluation in the next step.
