[Xen-devel] [PATCH v3 4/4] xen/arm: arm64: Remove MPIDR multiprocessing extensions check

[Wei Chen <wei.chen@xxxxxxxxxx>]

In AArch32, MPIDR bit 31 is defined as multiprocessing extensions bit.
But in AArch64, this bit is always RES1. So the value check for this
bit is no longer necessary in AArch64.

v2--v3:
1. Fix a typo in commit messages.
2. Add Julien's Reviewed-by.

v1-->v2:
Make clear the status of MPIDR.SMP bit in AArch32 and AArch64.
