Hmm. That's kinda solving the problem, but I think the proper solution
would be to implement topology_is_core_online() for x86.
The above is preventing the primary thread to be onlined, but then
onlines the corresponding hyperthread, which does not really make sense.
Something like the completely untested below.
Thanks,
