x86/topology: Add a mechanism to track topology via APIC IDs
Topology on X86 is determined by the registered APIC IDs and the segmentation information retrieved from CPUID. Depending on the granularity of the provided CPUID information the most fine grained scheme looks like this according to Intel terminology: [PKG][DIEGRP][DIE][TILE][MODULE][CORE][THREAD] Not enumerated domain levels consume 0 bits in the APIC ID. This allows to provide a consistent view at the topology and determine other information precisely like the number of cores in a package on hybrid systems, where the existing assumption that number or cores == number of threads / threads per core does not hold. Provide per domain level bitmaps which record the APIC ID split into the domain levels to make later evaluation of domain level specific information simple. This allows to calculate e.g. the logical IDs without any further extra logic. Contrary to the existing registration mechanism this records disabled CPUs, which are subject to later hotplug as well. That's useful for boot time sizing of package or die dependent allocations without using heuristics.
