It should be cpu_smt_mask() if we want the redundant big-core to be
degenerated in favour of the SMT level on P8, no? Because
cpu_core_mask refers to all the CPUs that are in the same chip.

Shouldn't we use cpumask_subset() here ?

I would much rather that we have all the topology-fixups done in one
function.
fixup_topology(void) {
if (has_big_core)
powerpc_topology[smt_idx].mask = smallcore_smt_mask;
if (shared_caches) {
const char *name = "CACHE";
powerpc_topology[bigcore_idx].mask = shared_cache_mask;
strlcpy(powerpc_topology[bigcore_idx].name, name,
strlen(name));
powerpc_topology[bigcore_idx].sd_flags = powerpc_shared_cache_flags;
}
/* Any other changes to the topology structure here */
And also as an optimization, get rid of degenerate structures here
itself so that we don't pay additional penalty while building the
sched-domains each time.
