This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed- bionic'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

However, if a PPTT structure represents a processors group, it matches a processor container UID in the namespace and the ACPI_PPTT_ACPI_PROCESSOR_ID_VALID flag indicates whether the ACPI processor ID is valid. Let's use UID whenever ACPI_PPTT_ACPI_PROCESSOR_ID_VALID is set to be consistent instead of using table offset as it's currently done for non-leaf nodes.

No system hang or crash was observed. On Cavium CN99XX Thunder X2 system. [Regression Potential] Regression tested on Cavium Thunder X2 CN99XX system, and none were found. Regression risk is low.
