Subject[PATCH] x86/resctrl: Fix potential lockdep warning
Date
rdtgroup_cpus_write() and mkdir_rdt_prepare() call
rdtgroup_kn_lock_live() -> kernfs_to_rdtgroup() to get 'rdtgrp', and
then call rdt_last_cmd_xxx() functions which will check if
rdtgroup_mutex is held/requires its caller to hold rdtgroup_mutex.
But if 'rdtgrp' returned from kernfs_to_rdtgroup() is NULL,
rdtgroup_mutex is not held and calling rdt_last_cmd_xxx() will result
in a lockdep warning.

Remove rdt_last_cmd_xxx() in these two paths. Just returning error
should be sufficient to report to the user that the entry doesn't exist
any more.

Fixes: cfd0f34e4cd5 ("x86/intel_rdt: Add diagnostics when making directories")
