[PATCH v4 18/29] x86/cacheinfo: Use enums for cache descriptor types

"Ahmed S. Darwish" <[email protected]>
Newsgroups dev.linux.lists.x86-cpuid,org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
The leaf 0x2 one-byte cache descriptor types:

	CACHE_L1_INST
	CACHE_L1_DATA
	CACHE_L2
	CACHE_L3

are just discriminators to be used within the cache_table[] mapping.
Their specific values are irrelevant.

Use enums for such types.

Make the enum packed and static assert that its values remain within a
single byte so that the cache_table[] array size do not go out of hand.

Use a __CHECKER__ guard for the static_assert(sizeof(enum) == 1) line as
sparse ignores the __packed annotation on enums.  This is similar to
commit fe3944fb245a ("fs: Move enum rw_hint into a new header file") for
core SCSI code.
