FWIW, I did run this on a system that uses the generic topology code.
Nothing blew up, and the topology seemed to be reported correctly still. I
won't give you any hints as to how since Greg wants you to figure it out
for yourself ;)

b4 handles it fine, but usually new revisions of patchsets are not sent
as replies to earlier ones, so that might be something to change if you
resend to fix the subject lines.

Cheers,
Conor.
