Subject: [PATCH 4.17 43/97] x86/cpu/AMD: Evaluate smp_num_siblings early

4.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

commit 1e1d7e25fd759eddf96d8ab39d0a90a1979b2d8c upstream

To support force disabling of SMT it's required to know the number of
thread siblings early. amd_get_topology() cannot be called before the APIC
driver is selected, so split out the part which initializes
smp_num_siblings and invoke it from amd_early_init().
