Note, this does not preclude Linux from supporting
assymetric MP, should the need arise: if MP assymetry is
supported then that can (and should) be expressed in the
sysfs topology accordingly - and the moment the assymetric
MP topology is enumerated in sysfs it gives a place for
the different event_source's to live there as well.
