Indeed sorry - I blame Friday syndrome for me failing to address that.

It's a match function that works by iterating over 0 to nr_cpu_ids and

if (uid == get_acpi_id_for_cpu(cpu))

So the question become does get_acpi_id_for_cpu() return a valid CPU
number for a disabled CPU.

That uses acpi_cpu_get_madt_gicc(cpu)->uid so this all gets a bit circular.
That looks it up via cpu_madt_gicc[cpu] which after the proposed updated
patch is set if enabled or online capable.  There are however a few other
error checks in acpi_map_gic_cpu_interface() that could lead to it
not being set (MPIDR validity checks). I suspect all of these end up being
fatal elsewhere which is why this hasn't blown up before.

If any of those cases are possible we could get a null pointer
dereference.

Easy to harden this case via the following (which will leave us with
-EINVAL.  There are other call sites that might trip over this.
I'm inclined to harden them as a separate issue though so as not
to get in the way of this patch set.

        return -EINVAL;

I'll spin an additional patch to make that change after testing I haven't
messed it up.

At the call site in gic_acpi_parse_madt_gicc() I'm not sure we can do better
than just skipping setting broken_rdists. I'll also pull the declaration of
that cpu variable down into this condition so it's more obvious we only
care about it in this error path.
