BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000004

This bug can be triggered by hot add and remove large number of xen
domain0's vcpus repeatedly.

Last level cache shared map is built during cpu up and build sched domain 
routine takes advantage of it to setup sched domain cpu topology, however, 
llc shared map is unreleased during cpu disable which lead to invalid sched 
domain cpu topology. This patch fix it by release llc shared map correctly
during cpu disable.
