For L3, that case happens when a new socket is hot plugged into the platform.
We don't handle that right now because that needs platform support and I don't
have that kind of platform to test.

But maybe I can add that support in code and do a test in a simulated mode.
Basically that will create a new domain for the new cache_id.

Thanks.
