powerpc: Make core id information available to userspace
Existing Open Firmware practice is to report each processor core as a separate node in the device tree. Report the value of the "reg" OF property corresponding to a logical CPU's device node as the core_id attribute in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/topology/core_id.
