Subject: x86/topology/intel: Unlock CPUID before evaluating anything
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Intel CPUs have a MSR bit to limit CPUID enumeration to leaf two. If this
bit is set by the BIOS then CPUID evaluation including topology enumeration
does not work correctly as the evaluation code does not try to analyze any
leaf greater than two.

This went unnoticed before because the original topology code just repeated
evaluation several times and managed to overwrite the initial limited
information with the correct one later. The new evaluation code does it
once and therefore ends up with the limited and wrong information.

Cure this by unlocking CPUID right before evaluating anything which depends
on the maximum CPUID leaf being greater than two instead of rereading stuff
after unlock.
