[PATCH] arm64: topology: Support SMT control on ACPI based system

For ACPI we'll build the topology from PPTT and we cannot directly
get the SMT number of each core. Instead using a temporary xarray
to record the heterogeneous information (from ACPI_PPTT_ACPI_IDENTICAL)
and SMT information of the first core in its heterogeneous CPU cluster
when building the topology. Then we can know the largest SMT number
in the system. Warn if heterogeneous SMT topology exists (multiple
heterogeneous CPU clusters with different SMT thread number) since the
SMT control cannot handle this well. Then enable the support of SMT
control.
