[  237.189041]
                *** DEADLOCK ***

When the resctrl filesystem is mounted the locks must be acquired in the
same order as was done when the cpus came online:

     cpu_hotplug_lock before rdtgroup_mutex.

This also requires to switch the static_branch_enable() calls to the
_cpulocked variant because now cpu hotplug lock is held already.
