sched/core: Mitigate race cpus_share_cache()/update_top_cache_domain()

Browse Source 
[ Upstream commit 42dc938a590c96eeb429e1830123fef2366d9c80 ]

Nothing protects the access to the per_cpu variable sd_llc_id. When testing
the same CPU (i.e. this_cpu == that_cpu), a race condition exists with
update_top_cache_domain(). One scenario being:

              CPU1                            CPU2
  ==================================================================

  per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => 0
                                    partition_sched_domains_locked()
      				      detach_destroy_domains()
  cpus_share_cache(CPUX, CPUX)          update_top_cache_domain(CPUX)
    per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => 0
                                          per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) = CPUX
    per_cpu(sd_llc_id, CPUX) => CPUX
    return false

ttwu_queue_cond() wouldn't catch smp_processor_id() == cpu and the result
is a warning triggered from ttwu_queue_wakelist().

Avoid a such race in cpus_share_cache() by always returning true when
this_cpu == that_cpu.

Fixes: 518cd62341 ("sched: Only queue remote wakeups when crossing cache boundaries")
