Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86/intel_rdt: Fix bug in initialization, locks and write cbm mask.

Fix bugs in patch series "x86:Intel Cache Allocation Technology Support"
patches by Fenghua Yu. Changes are:
  1) Instruct task_css_check not to print a warning for
    unnecesary lockdeps when calling from __rdt_intel_sched_in
    since all callers are already synchronized by task_rq_lock().
  2) Add missing mutex_locks surrounding accesses to clos_cbm_table.
  3) Properly initialize online cpus in intel_rdt_late_init by using
    intel_rdt_cpu_start() instead of rdt_cpumask_update().
  4) Make cbm_validate_rdt_cgroup to actually use the children's mask
    when validating children's masks (as it should).
