At the risk of repeating my comment to the v1 version of the patch, we
have shared caches only l2_cache_mask(cpu) is a strict superset of
sibling_mask(cpu).
"cpumask_weight(mask) > cpumask_weight(sibling_mask(cpu))" does not
capture this.
Could we please use
if (!cpumask_equal(sibling_mask(cpu), mask) &&
cpumask_subset(sibling_mask(cpu), mask) {
}
?

Otherwise the patch looks good to me.
