Subject: [PATCH v2 2/3] perf tool: fix detecting smt at machines with more
 than 32 cpus

Cpu bitmap is split into 32 bit words. For system with more than 32 cores
threads are always in different words thus first word never has two bits:
cpu0: "0000,00000100,00000001", cpu 79: "8000,00000080,00000000".

Instead of parsing bitmap read "core_cpus_list" or "thread_siblings_list"
and simply check presence of ',' or '-' in it.
