The method to detect the number of CPU cores on Cortex-A9 MPCore and
Cortex-A15 MPCore is different. On Cortex-A9 MPCore we can get this
information from the Snoop Control Unit(SCU). On Cortex-A15 MPCore we
have to read it from the system coprocessor(CP15), because the SCU on
Cortex-A15 MPCore does not have software readable registers. This
patch selects the correct method at runtime based on the CPU ID.

instead of bugging out, how about setting ncores to 1 instead ?

Please, do not do that. It doesn't scale to multiple clusters. Instead,
you can now rely on arm_dt_init_cpu_maps() to do the right thing as long
as your device tree exposes all the cpu nodes.

Maybe that would be useful in the case of adding new ARM core in the
future.

Ok, this could be the answer why DT for cpu is necessary even when
it's got from CP15?

Indeed, there is no unified way to find out how many CPUs are present in
a system. The A15 trick is neat (we used it in the past), but doesn't
scale to multiple clusters, not to mention heterogeneous clusters.

Hence the DT bindings for cpus, which neatly solves this problem and is
future proof.

right, kernel would at least boot in that case.
