Subject: [PATCH] cpu/cacheinfo: Fix teardown path
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

Philip Müller reported a hang when booting 32-bit 4.1 kernel on an AMD
box. A fragment of the splat was enough to pinpoint the issue:

   task: f58e0000 ti: f58e8000 task.ti: f58e800
   EIP: 0060:[<c135a903>] EFLAGS: 00010206 CPU: 0
   EIP is at free_cache_attributes+0x83/0xd0
   EAX: 00000001 EBX: f589d46c ECX: 00000090 EDX: 360c2000
   ESI: 00000000 EDI: c1724a80 EBP: f58e9ec0 ESP: f58e9ea0

cache_shared_cpu_map_setup() did check sibling CPUs cacheinfo descriptor
while the respective teardown path cache_shared_cpu_map_remove() didn't.
Fix that.

 From tglx's version: to be on the safe side, move the cacheinfo
descriptor check to free_cache_attributes(), thus cleaning up the
hotplug path a little and making this even more robust.
