Jan Stancek 43db2843a4 perf header: Make build_cpu_topology skip offline/absent CPUs
When build_cpu_topo() encounters offline/absent CPUs, it fails to find any
sysfs entries and returns failure.

This leads to build_cpu_topology() and write_cpu_topology() failing as
well.

Because HEADER_CPU_TOPOLOGY has not been written, read leaves cpu_topology_map
NULL and we get NULL ptr deref at:

  ...
   cmd_test
    __cmd_test
     test_and_print
      run_test
       test_session_topology
        check_cpu_topology

  Session topology: FAILED!

This patch makes build_cpu_topology() skip offline/absent CPUs, by checking
their presence against cpu_map built from online CPUs.

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.
