[PATCH] arm64: topology: Avoid checking numa mask for scheduler MC selection

From: Jeremy Linton
Date: Tue Jun 05 2018 - 15:08:46 EST


The numa mask subset check has problems if !CONFIG_NUMA, over hotplug
operations or during early boot. Lets disable the NUMA siblings checks
for the time being, as NUMA in socket machines have LLC's that will
assure that the scheduler topology isn't "borken".

Futher, as a defensive mechanism during hotplug, lets assure that the
LLC siblings are also masked.
