Tony W Wang-oc 283bab9809 x86/cpu: Remove redundant cpu_detect_cache_sizes() call
Both functions call init_intel_cacheinfo() which computes L2 and L3 cache
sizes from CPUID(4). But then they also call cpu_detect_cache_sizes() a
bit later which computes ->x86_tlbsize and L2 size from CPUID(80000006).

However, the latter call is not needed because

 - on these CPUs, CPUID(80000006).EBX for ->x86_tlbsize is reserved

 - CPUID(80000006).ECX for the L2 size has the same result as CPUID(4)

Therefore, remove the latter call to simplify the code.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
