The suffix number may not be consecutive, especially for SPR and later
platforms. Because the IDs are from the discovery table now, which is
assigned by the HW. The physic IDs are not guaranteed to be consecutive.

I don't think there is a plan to change it to logical IDs. Because
sometimes people want to know the physic IDs. So they can locate the
specific unit quickly.

Thanks,
Kan
