Last level cache shared map is built during cpu up and build sched domain
routine takes advantage of it to setup sched domain cpu topology, however,
llc shared map is unreleased during cpu disable which lead to invalid sched
domain cpu topology. This patch fix it by release llc shared map correctly
during cpu disable.
Very little is said in this changelog about how the bug was
found, how likely it is to occur for others, what systems are
affected, etc.
Thanks,
Ingo
