Subject: [PATCH v5 3/4] x86/cacheinfo: Delete global num_cache_leaves

Linux remembers cpu_cachinfo::num_leaves per CPU, but x86 initializes all
CPUs from the same global "num_cache_leaves".

This is erroneous on systems such as Meteor Lake, where each CPU has a
distinct num_leaves value. Delete the global "num_cache_leaves" and
initialize num_leaves on each CPU.

After this change, all CPUs will traverse CPUID leaf 0x4 when booted for
the first time. On systems with symmetric cache topologies this is
useless work.

Creating a list of processor models that have asymmetric cache topologies
was considered. The burden of maintaining such list would outweigh the
performance benefit of skipping this extra step.

Changes since v4:
 * None

Changes since v3:
 * Rebased on v6.7-rc5.

Changes since v2:
 * None

Changes since v1:
 * Do not make num_cache_leaves a per-CPU variable. Instead, reuse the
   existing per-CPU ci_cpu_cacheinfo variable. (Dave Hansen)
