commit a74cfffb03b73d41e08f84c2e5c87dec0ce3db9f upstream.
arch_smt_update() is only called when the sysfs SMT control knob is
changed. This means that when SMT is enabled in the sysfs control knob the
system is considered to have SMT active even if all siblings are offline.
To allow finegrained control of the speculation mitigations, the actual SMT
state is more interesting than the fact that siblings could be enabled.
Rework the code, so arch_smt_update() is invoked from each individual CPU
hotplug function, and simplify the update function while at it.

sched: Add sched_smt_active()2019-05-16T17:45:11+00:00Ben Hutchingsben@decadent.org.uk2019-05-09T23:46:25+00:00urn:sha1:1f562beba75c9da65461debbdb5d8d2871ab38a1
Add the sched_smt_active() function needed for some x86 speculation
mitigations. This was introduced upstream by commits 1b568f0aabf2
"sched/core: Optimize SCHED_SMT", ba2591a5993e "sched/smt: Update
sched_smt_present at runtime", c5511d03ec09 "sched/smt: Make
sched_smt_present track topology", and 321a874a7ef8 "sched/smt: Expose
sched_smt_present static key". The upstream implementation uses the
static_key_{disable,enable}_cpuslocked() functions, which aren't
practical to backport.
