Currently the cluster identifier is not set on the DT based platforms. The reset or default value is -1 for all the CPUs. Once we assign the cluster identifier values correctly that imay result in getting the thread siblings wrongs as the core identifiers can be same for 2 different CPUs belonging to 2 different cluster. So, in order to get the thread sibling cpumasks correct, we need to update them only if the cores they belong are in the same cluster within the socket. Let us skip updation of the thread sibling cpumaks if the cluster identifier doesn't match.
So this issue should be there on ACPI systems as well then. Kunpeng920 and Ampere Altra don't have SMT, so very likely nobody has noticed this so far.
