perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix hardcoded socket 0 assumption in the Haswell init code

On multi-socket Intel v3 processor systems (aka Haswell), kdump can crash
in hswep_uncore_cpu_init():

  BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at 00000000006563a1
  IP: [<ffffffff8101b582>] hswep_uncore_cpu_init+0x52/0xa0

The crash was introduced by the following commit:

  9d85eb9119f4 ("x86/smpboot: Make logical package management more robust")

... which patch corrected the physical ID to logical ID mapping of the
threads if the kdumped panic occurs on any socket other than socket 0.

But hswep_uncore_cpu_init() is hard coded for physical socket 0 and if the
system is kdump'ing on any other socket the logical package value will be
incorrect - crashing the kdump kernel.

The code should not use 0 as the physical ID, and should use the boot
CPU's logical package ID in this calculation.
