So this is called via

   intel_rdt_cpu_notifier(CPU_ONLINE)
     intel_rdt_cpu_start()
       cbm_update_msrs()
         cbm_cpu_update()
           wrmsr()

And runs on the CPU which initiated the hotplug and not on the newly
online cpu. Pretty useless, right?

Same issue as in the cqm patch.

Thanks,
