That is, maybe you could pick up his patches and finish them, Andi
doesn't seem interested in getting them sorted.

I think the last posting lost the needs_percore logic, which would avoid
the percore allocations on platforms that don't need it (if we can
detect if HT is enabled that would be nice too).

I think he also lost the topology iteration (which can be used for both
the percore and the amd northbridge stuff), currently we iterate the
full machine looking for a matching nb/core_id, using a smaller topology
mask makes sense.

Also, after reading your patch, I think we want the MSR names in the
lists, not the numbers.
