Subject: [47/98] x86, AMD: Fix stale cpuid4_info shared_map data in shared_cpu_map cpumasks

2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Prarit Bhargava <prarit@...hat.com>

commit ebb682f522411abbe358059a256a8672ec0bd55b upstream.

The per_cpu cpuid4_info shared_map can contain stale data when CPUs are added
and removed.

The stale data can lead to a NULL pointer derefernce panic on a remove of a
CPU that has had siblings previously removed.

This patch resolves the panic by verifying a cpu is actually online before
adding it to the shared_cpu_map, only examining cpus that are part of
the same lower level cache, and by updating other siblings lowest level cache
maps when a cpu is added.
