Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 1/2] perf: Extract building cache level for a CPU into separate function

build_caches() builds the complete cache topology of the system by
iterating over all CPU, building and comparing cache levels of each CPU,
keeping only the unique ones at the end.

Extract the unit that build the cache levels for a single CPU into a
separate function. Expose this function, and the MAX_CACHE_LVL value to
be used elsewhere in perf too.

Changelog:
o v2->v3
  - Patch 3 from previous series with a comment over the new
    build_caches_for_cpu() method.

o v1->v2
  - No Changes.
