Reinette Chatre 6c5faa4456 x86/intel_rdt: Fix potential deadlock during resctrl mount

               other info that might help us debug this:

[  237.134867] Chain exists of:
                 cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem --> rdtgroup_mutex --> &type->s_umount_key#37/1

[  237.148425]  Possible unsafe locking scenario:

[  237.155015]        CPU0                    CPU1
[  237.160057]        ----                    ----
[  237.165100]   lock(&type->s_umount_key#37/1);
[  237.169952]                                lock(rdtgroup_mutex);
[  237.176641]
lock(&type->s_umount_key#37/1);
[  237.184287]   lock(cpu_hotplug_lock.rw_sem);
[  237.189041]
                *** DEADLOCK ***

When the resctrl filesystem is mounted the locks must be acquired in the
same order as was done when the cpus came online:

     cpu_hotplug_lock before rdtgroup_mutex.

This also requires to switch the static_branch_enable() calls to the
_cpulocked variant because now cpu hotplug lock is held already.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
