cpu hotplug: intel_cacheinfo: fix cpu hotplug error handling

- Fix resource leakage in error case within detect_cache_attributes()

- Don't register hotcpu notifier when cache_add_dev() returns error

- Introduce cache_dev_map cpumask to track whether cache interface for
  CPU is successfully added by cache_add_dev() or not.

  cache_add_dev() may fail with out of memory error. In order to
  avoid cache_remove_dev() with that uninitialized cache interface when
  CPU_DEAD event is delivered we need to have the cache_dev_map cpumask.

  (We cannot change cache_add_dev() from CPU_ONLINE event handler
  to CPU_UP_PREPARE event handler. Because cache_add_dev() needs
  to do cpuid and store the results with its CPU online.)
