Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86/intel_rdt/mbm: Fix MBM overflow handler during hot cpu

When a CPU is dying, we cancel the worker and schedule a new worker on a
different CPU on the same domain. But if the timer is already about to
expire (say 0.99s) then we essentially double the interval.

We modify the hot cpu handling to cancel the delayed work on the dying
cpu and run the worker immediately on a different cpu in same domain. We
donot flush the worker because the MBM overflow worker reschedules the
worker on same CPU and scans the domain->cpu_mask to get the domain
pointer.
