The intent of returning 0 here is that if csu is not supported on this
class then there is nothing to do and hence no error.

Yes, the check is redundant and can be removed. (If it were to stay it
should be moved to be before call get_cpu_cacheinfo_level() call so that
wouldn't give spurious errors for non-cache cpus.)
