As part of setting up the host context, we populate its
MPIDR by using cpu_logical_map(). It turns out that contrary
to arm64, cpu_logical_map() on 32bit ARM doesn't return the
*full* MPIDR, but a truncated version.
This leaves the host MPIDR slightly corrupted after the first
run of a VM, since we won't correctly restore the MPIDR on
exit. Oops.
Since we cannot trust cpu_logical_map(), let's adopt a different
strategy. We move the initialization of the host CPU context as
part of the per-CPU initialization (which, in retrospect, makes
a lot of sense), and directly read the MPIDR from the HW. This
is guaranteed to work on both arm and arm64.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
