From: Kan Liang <kan.liang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The below warning is triggered when building with arm multi_v7_defconfig. kernel/events/core.c: In function 'perf_event_setup_cpumask': kernel/events/core.c:14012:13: warning: the comparison will always evaluate as 'true' for the address of 'thread_sibling' will never be NULL [-Waddress] 14012 | if (!topology_sibling_cpumask(cpu)) { The perf_event_init_cpu() may be invoked at the early boot stage, while the topology_*_cpumask hasn't been initialized yet. The check is to specially handle the case, and initialize the perf_online_<domain>_masks on the boot CPU. X86 uses a per-cpu cpumask pointer, which could be NULL at the early boot stage. However, ARM uses a global variable, which never be NULL. Use perf_online_mask as an indicator instead. Only initialize the perf_online_<domain>_masks when perf_online_mask is empty. Fix a typo as well.
