[1] and [2] build the CPU topology from the cacheinfo information for both DT/ACPI based systems and remove (struct cpu_topology).llc_id which was used by ACPI only. Creating the cacheinfo for secondary CPUs is done during early boot. Preemption and interrupts are disabled at this stage. On PREEMPT_RT kernels, allocating memory (and parsing the PPTT table for ACPI based systems) triggers a: 'BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context' [4] To prevent this bug, allocate the cacheinfo from the primary CPU when preemption and interrupts are enabled and before booting secondary CPUs. The cache levels/leaves are computed from DT/ACPI PPTT information only, without relying on the arm64 CLIDR_EL1 register. If no cache information is found in the DT/ACPI PPTT, then fallback to the current state, triggering [4] on PREEMPT_RT kernels. Patches to update the arm64 device trees that have incomplete cacheinfo (mostly for missing the 'cache-level' or 'cache-unified' property) have been sent at [3].
