Subject: [PATCH v6] ACPI: processor: Fix evaluating _PDC method when running as Xen dom0
In ACPI systems, the OS can direct power management, as opposed to the
firmware. This OS-directed Power Management is called OSPM. Part of
telling the firmware that the OS going to direct power management is
making ACPI "_PDC" (Processor Driver Capabilities) calls. These _PDC
methods must be evaluated for every processor object. If these _PDC
calls are not completed for every processor it can lead to
inconsistency and later failures in things like the CPU frequency
driver.
In a Xen system, the dom0 kernel is responsible for system-wide power
management. The dom0 kernel is in charge of OSPM. However, the
number of CPUs available to dom0 can be different than the number of
CPUs physically present on the system.
This leads to a problem: the dom0 kernel needs to evaluate _PDC for
all the processors, but it can't always see them.
In dom0 kernels, ignore the existing ACPI method for determining if a
processor is physically present because it might not be accurate.
Instead, ask the hypervisor for this information.
Fix this by introducing a custom function to use when running as Xen
dom0 in order to check whether a processor object matches a CPU that's
online. Such checking is done using the existing information fetched
by the Xen pCPU subsystem, extending it to also store the ACPI ID.
This ensures that _PDC method gets evaluated for all physically online
CPUs, regardless of the number of CPUs made available to dom0.
Fixes: 5d554a7bb064 ('ACPI: processor: add internal processor_physically_present()')

Changes since v5:
- Include bug.h header for the inline dummy helper.
- Constify pcpu local variable in xen_processor_present().
Changes since v4:
- Move definition/declaration of xen_processor_present() to different
header.
- Fold subject edit.
Changes since v3:
- Protect xen_processor_present() definition with CONFIG_ACPI.
Changes since v2:
- Extend and use the existing pcpu functionality.
Changes since v1:
- Reword commit message.
