[PATCH -next] cacheinfo: Correctly handle new acpi_get_cache_info() prototype

commit bd500361a937 ("ACPI: PPTT: Update acpi_find_last_cache_level()
to acpi_get_cache_info()")
updates the function acpi_get_cache_info().
If CONFIG_ACPI_PPTT is not defined, acpi_get_cache_info() doesn't
update its *levels and *split_levels parameters and returns 0.
This can lead to a faulty behaviour.
Make acpi_get_cache_info() return an error code if CONFIG_ACPI_PPTT
is not defined. Initialize levels and split_levels before passing
their address to acpi_get_cache_info().
Also, in init_cache_level():
- commit e75d18cecbb3 ("arm64: cacheinfo: Fix incorrect
assignment of signed error value to unsigned fw_level")
checks the fw_level value in init_cache_level() in case
the value is negative. Remove this check as the error code
is not returned through fw_level anymore.
- if no PPTT is present or CONFIG_ACPI_PPTT is not defined,
it is still possible to use the cache information from clidr_el1.
Instead of aborting if acpi_get_cache_info() returns an error
code, just continue.
