For consecutive numbers the lscpu command collapses the output and just
shows the range with start and end. The processors are numbered that
way on POWER8.
$ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=8
$ lscpu | grep '^NUMA node'
NUMA node(s): 2
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-79
NUMA node8 CPU(s): 80-159
This causes the heuristic to detect the number threads per core, looking
for the number after the first comma, to fail, and QEMU aborts because of
invalid arguments.
$ lscpu | grep '^NUMA node0' | sed -e 's/^[^,-]*(,|\-)\([0-9]*\),.*$/\1/'
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-79
But the lscpu command shows the number of threads per core:
$ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=8
$ lscpu | grep 'Thread(s) per core'
Thread(s) per core: 8
$ sudo ppc64_cpu --smt=off
$ lscpu | grep 'Thread(s) per core'
Thread(s) per core: 1
This commit therefore directly uses that value and replaces use of grep
with "sed -n" and its "p" command.

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.
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.
