Rui, I think you want to use smp_num_siblings here. And we did define
that amd_get_cores_per_cu() but that's redundant:

                /* get compute unit information */
                smp_num_siblings = ((ebx >> 8) & 3) + 1;
                c->compute_unit_id = ebx & 0xff;
                cores_per_cu += ((ebx >> 8) & 3);

So if I'm not missing anything else, we don't need that cores_per_cu
variable, nor do we need amd_get_cores_per_cu(). I'll zap this patch
from my queue. You can use smp_num_siblings in your patch instead which
is exported to everything.

Thanks.
