[SRU][Artful][Bionic][PATCH 1/1] x86/intel_rdt/cqm: Prevent use after free

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx at linutronix.de>

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1733662

intel_rdt_iffline_cpu() -> domain_remove_cpu() frees memory first and then
proceeds accessing it.

 BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in find_first_bit+0x1f/0x80
 Read of size 8 at addr ffff883ff7c1e780 by task cpuhp/31/195
 find_first_bit+0x1f/0x80
 has_busy_rmid+0x47/0x70
 intel_rdt_offline_cpu+0x4b4/0x510

 Freed by task 195:
 kfree+0x94/0x1a0
 intel_rdt_offline_cpu+0x17d/0x510

Do the teardown first and then free memory.
