MIPS: Netlogic: Mark Netlogic chips as SMT capable
Netlogic XLR chip has multiple cores. Each core includes four integrated
hardware threads, and they share L1 data and instruction caches.
If the chip is marked to be SMT capable, scheduler then could do more, say,
idle load balancing.
Changes are now confined only to the code of XLR, and hardware is probed
to get core ID for correct setup.
