There is also no need to copy whole op to user at the end, max_cpu_index is
sufficient
Rename xen_sysctl_topologyinfo and XEN_SYSCTL_topologyinfo to reflect the fact
that these are used for CPU topology. Subsequent patch will add support for
PCI topology sysctl.

If we are going to change the hypercall, then can we see about making it
a stable interface (i.e. not a sysctl/domctl)? There are non-toolstack
components which might want/need access to this information. (i.e. I am
still looking for a reasonable way to get this information from Xen in
hwloc)
In which case leaving the sysctl alone and just adding a new non-sysctl
interface should be considered.
(Sorry for late reply)
Would a platform op be an option here or do you prefer a whole new
hypercall?
