arch_topology: Build cacheinfo from primary CPU
commit 3fcbf1c7 ("arch_topology: Fix cache attributes detection in the CPU hotplug path") adds a call to detect_cache_attributes() to populate the cacheinfo before updating the siblings mask. detect_cache_attributes() allocates memory and can take the PPTT mutex (on ACPI platforms). On PREEMPT_RT kernels, on secondary CPUs, this triggers a: 'BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context' [1] as the code is executed with preemption and interrupts disabled. The primary CPU was previously storing the cache information using the now removed (struct cpu_topology).llc_id: commit 5b8dc787 ("arch_topology: Drop LLC identifier stash from the CPU topology") allocate_cache_info() tries to build the cacheinfo from the primary CPU prior secondary CPUs boot, if the DT/ACPI description contains cache information. If allocate_cache_info() fails, then fallback to the current state for the cacheinfo allocation. [1] will be triggered in such case. When unplugging a CPU, the cacheinfo memory cannot be freed. If it was, then the memory would be allocated early by the re-plugged CPU and would trigger [1]. Note that populate_cache_leaves() might be called multiple times due to populate_leaves being moved up. This is required since detect_cache_attributes() might be called with per_cpu_cacheinfo(cpu) being allocated but not populated.
