So if the above works, the scheduler guys can mandate that little CPUs are always first and for ARM it would be a matter of getting the right CPU topology in the DT (independent of what hw vendors think of CPU topology) and booting Linux on CPU 4 etc.
Just a note about that: if the scheduler mandates little CPUs first, that should _not_ have any implications on the DT content. DT is not about encoding Linux specific implementation details. It is simple enough to tweak the CPU logical map at run time when enumeratiing CPUs.
