Pierre Gondois 5944ce092b arch_topology: Build cacheinfo from primary CPU 
commit 3fcbf1c77d ("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 5b8dc787ce ("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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
