Re: [RFC][PATCH 6/6] x86/resctrl: Fix SNC detection

["Luck, Tony" <tony.luck@intel.com>]

I think this resctrl patch should look like this:

Subject: [PATCH] x86/resctrl: Fix SNC detection

Now that the x86 topology code has a sensible nodes-per-package
measure, that does not depend on the online status of CPUs, use this
to divinate the SNC mode.

Note that when Cluster on Die (CoD) is configured on older systems this
will also show multiple NUMA nodes per package. Intel Resource Director
Technology is incomaptible with CoD. Print a warning and do not use the
fixup MSR_RMID_SNC_CONFIG.
