Hey Ley Foon Tan,

Apologies for my various bits of confusion.

I'd like to suggest a change to the commit message:
```
If "capacity-dmips-mhz" is present in a CPU DT node,
topology_parse_cpu_capacity() will fail to allocate memory.
arm64, with which this code path is shared, does not call
topology_parse_cpu_capacity() until later in boot where memory
allocation is available.
While "capacity-dmips-mhz" is not yet a valid property on RISC-V,
invalid properties should be ignored rather than cause issues.
Move init_cpu_topology(), which calls topology_parse_cpu_capacity(),
to a later initialization stage, to match arm64.

As a side effect of this change, RISC-V is "protected" from changes to
core topology code that would work on arm64 where memory allocation is
safe but on RISC-V isn't.
```

You don't need to use exactly that, but with something along those
lines:
