No, don't use cell-index. If you have a setup with 2 SOCs in
SMP or something like the Axon bridge on cell where you can have
multiple Axons in a system, cell-index will not be unique. They
will give you the index -within-a-chip- as it is used, as I
said in a separate mail, for things like power or clock control
bits & pieces. It will not be system-wide unique.
