Hmm, so is the issue that the acpi_cpu driver expects processor objects to be 
listed in the same order in _PR_ as in the MADT?  If so, then that is 
probably a false assumption.  The MADT should always have ACPI IDs for non-UP 
systems.  OTOH, the comment in the code in acpi_cpu_attach() indicates that 
some boxes do not use the same ProcID value in processor objects and MADT 
entries and your patch breaks that case.   I will look at the spec to see how 
this is supposed to work.
