x86/intel_rdt: Prevent deadlock against hotplug lock The cpu online/offline callbacks of intel_rdt lock rdtgroup_mutex nested inside of cpu hotplug lock. rdtgroup_cpus_write() does it in reverse order. Remove the get/put_online_cpus() calls from rdtgroup_cpus_write(). This is safe against cpu hotplug as the resource group cpumasks are protected by rdtgroup_mutex. Found by review, but should have been found if authors would have bothered to test cpu hotplug with lockdep enabled.
