Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] cacheinfo: Add function to get cacheinfo for a given (cpu, cachelevel)

Resctrl code open codes a search for information about a given cache
level in a couple of places (and more are on the way).

Provide a new inline function get_cpu_cacheinfo_level() in
<linux/cacheinfo.h> to do the search and return a pointer to
the cacheinfo structure.

Simplify the existing get_cpu_cacheinfo_id() by using this new
function to do the search.
