Subject: [PATCH] ppc64_cpu/info: fix bad report when non continuous CPU ids

When CPU ids are not continuous, let say that the kernel didn't reuse a set
of CPU ids already used on a different nodes, the output of ppc64_cpu
--info is not correct.

For instance, in the example below the CPU id 48 to 55 haven't been reused
by the kernel when a CPU has been added after a LPM operation.
Note that the system is running in SMT=4.

The numactl -H command is providing the correct set of CPU:
ltczep3-lp4:~ # numactl -H
available: 2 nodes (0-1)
node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71
node 0 size: 7177 MB
node 0 free: 4235 MB
node 1 cpus: 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47
node 1 size: 24508 MB
node 1 free: 23539 MB
node distances:
node   0   1
  0:  10  40
  1:  40  10

But ppc64_cpu --info is reporting the CPUs 48 to 55 offlined while not
reporting at all the CPU 65 to 71:
ltczep3-lp4:~ # ppc64_cpu --info
Core   0:    0*    1*    2*    3*    4*    5*    6*    7*
Core   1:    8*    9*   10*   11*   12*   13*   14*   15*
Core   2:   16*   17*   18*   19*   20*   21*   22*   23*
Core   3:   24*   25*   26*   27*   28*   29*   30*   31*
Core   4:   32*   33*   34*   35*   36*   37*   38*   39*
Core   5:   40*   41*   42*   43*   44*   45*   46*   47*
Core   6:   48    49    50    51    52    53    54    55

This is because it is considering that the CPU id are continuous which is
not the case here.

To prevent that, when looking for a core, it is now first checking that the
physical_id of the first thread in that core is defined (not -1). If that
the case this means that CPU/core is present.

With that patch applied, ppc64_cpu --info is reporting:
ltczep3-lp4:~ # pc64_cpu --info
Core   0:    0*    1*    2*    3*    4     5     6     7
Core   1:    8*    9*   10*   11*   12    13    14    15
Core   2:   16*   17*   18*   19*   20    21    22    23
Core   3:   24*   25*   26*   27*   28    29    30    31
Core   4:   32*   33*   34*   35*   36    37    38    39
Core   5:   40*   41*   42*   43*   44    45    46    47
Core   6:   64*   65*   66*   67*   68    69    70    71
