Subject: [PATCH] arch_topology: Silence early cacheinfo errors when non-existent

Architectures which do not have cacheinfo such as ARM 32-bit would spit
out the following during boot:

 Early cacheinfo failed, ret = -2

Treat -ENOENT specifically to silence this error since it means that the
platform does not support reporting its cache information.

Fixes: 3fcbf1c77d08 ("arch_topology: Fix cache attributes detection in the CPU hotplug path")
