Srikar Dronamraju 70edd4a7c7 powerpc/smp: Optimize remove_cpu_from_masks
While offlining a CPU, system currently iterate through all the CPUs in
the DIE to clear sibling, l2_cache and smallcore maps. However if there
are more cores in a DIE, system can end up spending more time iterating
through CPUs which are completely unrelated.

Optimize this by only iterating through smaller but relevant cpumap.
If shared_cache is set, cpu_l2_cache_map should be relevant else
cpu_sibling_map would be relevant.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
