[PATCH v2 02/29] ACPI / PPTT: Stop acpi_count_levels() expecting callers to clear levels

[James Morse <james.morse@arm.com>]

In acpi_count_levels(), the initial value of *levels passed by the
caller is really an implementation detail of acpi_count_levels(), so it
is unreasonable to expect the callers of this function to know what to
pass in for this parameter.  The only sensible initial value is 0,
which is what the only upstream caller (acpi_get_cache_info()) passes.

Use a local variable for the starting cache level in acpi_count_levels(),
and pass the result back to the caller via the function return value.

Gid rid of the levels parameter, which has no remaining purpose.

Fix acpi_get_cache_info() to match.
