[PATCH v4 06/20] cacheinfo: Allow early detection and population of cache attributes

Tue Jun 21 12:20:20 PDT 2022


Some architecture/platforms may need to setup cache properties very
early in the boot along with other cpu topologies so that all these
information can be used to build sched_domains which is used by the
scheduler.

Allow detect_cache_attributes to be called quite early during the boot.
