The ACPI MPAM table uses the UID of a processor container specified in the PPTT to indicate the subset of CPUs and cache topology that can access each MPAM System Component (MSC). This information is not directly useful to the kernel. The equivalent cpumask is needed instead. Add a helper to find the processor container by its id, then walk the possible CPUs to fill a cpumask with the CPUs that have this processor container as a parent.

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 reStructuredText 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.
