[PATCH 5/8] arm64: Create cache sysfs directory without ACPI PPTT for hardware prefetch control

From: Kohei Tarumizu
Date: Tue Jan 25 2022 - 02:28:39 EST


This patch will create a cache sysfs directory without ACPI PPTT if
the CONFIG_HWPF_CONTROL is true.

Hardware prefetch control driver need cache sysfs directory and cache
level/type information. In ARM processor, these information can be
obtained from the register even without PPTT. Therefore, we set the
cpu_map_populated to true to create cache sysfs directory if the
machine doesn't have PPTT.
