Re: [PATCH v6 4/6] xen/cpupool: Create different cpupools at boot time



Hi Luca,

Introduce a way to create different cpupools at boot time, this is
particularly useful on ARM big.LITTLE system where there might be the
need to have different cpupools for each type of core, but also
systems using NUMA can have different cpu pools for each node.

The feature on arm relies on a specification of the cpupools from the
device tree to build pools and assign cpus to them.

ACPI is not supported for this feature.

Documentation is created to explain the feature.

Changes in v6:
- Changed docs, return if booted with ACPI in btcpupools_dtb_parse,
   panic if /chosen does not exists. Changed commit message (Julien)

I went through the changes and they LGTM. Stefano has paid closer attention to this series, so I will leave him to do the full review.

Cheers,
