powerpc/smp: Cache CPU to chip lookup
On systems with large CPUs per node, even with the filtered matching of related CPUs, there can be large number of calls to cpu_to_chip_id for the same CPU. For example with 4096 vCPU, 1 node QEMU configuration, with 4 threads per core, system could be see upto 1024 calls to cpu_to_chip_id() for the same CPU. On a given system, cpu_to_chip_id() for a given CPU would always return the same. Hence cache the result in a lookup table for use in subsequent calls. Since all CPUs sharing the same core will belong to the same chip, the lookup_table has an entry for one CPU per core. chip_id_lookup_table is not being freed and would be used on subsequent CPU online post CPU offline.
