Currently if architectures want to support HOTPLUG_SMT they need to
provide a topology_is_primary_thread() telling the framework which
thread in the SMT cannot offline. However arm64 doesn't have a
restriction on which thread in the SMT cannot offline, a simplest
choice is that just make 1st thread as the "primary" thread. So
just make this as the default implementation in the framework and
let architectures like x86 that have special primary thread to
override this function.

There's no need to provide a stub function if !CONFIG_SMP or
!CONFIG_HOTPLUG_SMP. In such case the testing CPU is already
the 1st CPU in the SMT so it's always the primary thread.

IMHO, ARM64 (/ARM), RISCV and PARISC (SMP) use GENERIC_ARCH_TOPOLOGY
(and drivers/base/arch_topology.c) so they could share
topology_is_primary_thread() also there?

I think yes, if they want to implement HOTPLUG_SMT and don't have a restriction
on the primary thread.

Thanks.
