    dmaengine: idxd: Fix oops during rmmod on single-CPU platforms

    During the removal of the idxd driver, registered offline callback is
    invoked as part of the clean up process. However, on systems with only
    one CPU online, no valid target is available to migrate the
    perf context, resulting in a kernel oops:

    Fix the issue by preventing the migration of the perf context to an
    invalid target.
