Now that this is ordered more sensibly, an issue is becoming apparent: If and
when x86 also supports GENERIC_CPU_TOPOLOGY, the present x86 logic should also
be engaged when !cpu_topology. By re-arranging accordingly, you also avoid the
need to duplicate the literal 1.

Personally I consider this already being too redundant with ...

... this. Imo it would better be

static inline void init_cpu_sibling_map(unsigned int cpu)
{
    if ( IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_GENERIC_CPU_TOPOLOGY) && cpu_topology )
    {
        cpumask_copy(per_cpu(cpu_sibling_mask, cpu),
                     cpu_topology[cpu].thread_sibling);
        cpumask_copy(per_cpu(cpu_core_mask, cpu),
                     cpu_topology[cpu].core_sibling);
    }
    else
        init_cpu_sibling_map_default(cpu);
}

Which then of course requires the decl of cpu_topology (not its definition) to
always be visible.
