Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] amd: uncore: Get correct number of cores sharing last level cache

In Family 17h, the number of cores sharing a cache level is obtained
from the Cache Properties CPUID leaf (0x8000001d) by passing in the
cache level in ECX. In prior families, a cache level of 2 was used to
determine this information.

To get the right information, irrespective of Family, iterate over
the cache levels using CPUID 0x8000001d. The last level cache is the
last value to return a non-zero value in EAX.
