Hi Sudeep,
Hey Geert,

This is triggered

     Early cacheinfo failed, ret = -12

on all my RV64 platforms (K210, PolarFire, StarLight).
This should be fixed by Sudeeps most recent patchset, at least
it was when I tested it!

Conor you beat me in the response speed :).

-12 = -ENOMEM.

The boot continues regardless, and the K210 even has enough spare
RAM after boot to run "ls", unlike two weeks ago ;-)
Yes Conor initially reported this and I suspected something to do with
per-cpu allocation as the early cacheinfo failed but succeeded in device
initcall level. However when fixing some hotplug issue, I moved the
detection of cache attributes on all cpus from boot cpu to individual
CPUs in the secondary startup which seem to fix the issue as I assume the
per-cpu allocation is ready to use at that stage.

However we still have one pending issue[0] to address even after [1], but
that doesn't affect DT platforms.
