SCU based detection only works with Cortex-A9 MP and it doesn't
support ones with multiple clusters. The only way to detect number of
CPU core correctly is with DT /cpu node. If DT /cpu node based
detection fails, we just simply fall back a single core in Tegra SoCs.

You don't need to do any of this (and, therefore, I don't think you even
need the first patch.)

The generic boot code will set CPU0 as possible, present and online.  Think
about it: you're booting on that very CPU so it better be possible, present
and online.  If it isn't, what CPU is executing your code?

arm_dt_init_cpu_maps() will only ever set _additional_ CPUs in the possible
map.

Ergo, by the time the above code is run, CPU0 will already be marked as
possible.  Therefore, the above code and arm_dt_cpu_map_valid() is not
required.
