lscpu: support non sequentially numbering of CPUs
lscpu don't work correctly on my system with: $ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/possible 0-1,4-5,8-9,12-13 [kzak@redhat.com: - coding style, - add commit message - add real_cpu_num() macro, - fix functions where we need idx as well as CPU number] Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
