[PATCH v3 2/3] ACPI: PPTT: Leave the table mapped for the runtime usage

[Sudeep Holla <sudeep.holla@arm.com>]

Currently, everytime an information needs to be fetched from the PPTT,
the table is mapped via acpi_get_table() and unmapped after the use via
acpi_put_table() which is fine. However we do this at runtime especially
when the CPU is hotplugged out and plugged in back since we re-populate
the cache topology and other information.

However, with the support to fetch LLC information from the PPTT in the
cpuhotplug path which is executed in the atomic context, it is preferred
to avoid mapping and unmapping of the PPTT for every single use as the
acpi_get_table() might sleep waiting for a mutex.

In order to avoid the same, the table is needs to just mapped once on
the boot CPU and is never unmapped allowing it to be used at runtime
with out the hassle of mapping and unmapping the table.

Hi Rafael,

Sorry to bother you again on this PPTT changes. Guenter reported an issue
with lockdep enabled in -next that include my cacheinfo/arch_topology changes
to utilise LLC from PPTT in the CPU hotplug path.

Please ack the change once you are happy so that I can get it merged with
other fixes via Greg's tree.

Regards,
Sudeep
