Currently, both Linux CPU id and hart id are same. This is not recommended as it will lead to discontinuous CPU indexing in Linux. Moreover, kdump kernel will run from CPU0 which would be absent if we follow existing scheme. Implement a logical mapping between Linux CPU id and hart id to decouple these two. Always mark the boot processor as CPU0 and all other CPUs get the logical CPU id based on their booting order.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
