That commit introduced only two thirds of the files, the rest is from
f5c2d6 (just in case you want to update the commit message).
But! Not only we don't need these, but power and uevent don't need to
be there either, do they? And core_siblings(_list) is also not
something we (will) use since it's just a syntax sugar for parsing
data for all CPUs (that we do anyway).
If you want to clean the test data a bit, I suggest you clean
tests/nodeinfodata/*/cpu/cpu*/{uevent,power,topology/core_siblings*,firmware_node,subsystem}
files too. That's 202 files you can get rid of.
good point. Although I'd leave core_siblings and topology - it's
currently not used, but it may come handy when debugging our own node
info code. It contains all the pieces of information that one need to
reconstruct the topology. But others can be removed as you say. Will
send v2.
