sbsa uses PPTT to indicate the cpu topology, and OS use the ACPI to get hardware infomation. We add the related information in devicetree, and TF-A parses devicetree
and extract data form it , so EDK2 can gather data form TF-A to create PPTT tables via SMC calls.
Now the PPTT tables created by EDK2 lose some detailed information, so the cpu topology OS identified cannot align with the qemu configure. We hope to add the topology
information in device tree, so EKD2 can create more detailed PPTT tables.
