  sched: Drop group_capacity to 1 only if local group has extra capacity
  sched: Force balancing on newidle balance if local group has capacity
  sched: Set group_imb only a task can be pulled from the busiest cpu
  sched: Do not consider SCHED_IDLE tasks to be cache hot
  sched: Drop all load weight manipulation for RT tasks
  sched: Create special class for stop/migrate work
  sched: Unindent labels
  sched: Comment updates: fix default latency and granularity numbers

 To implement it in an architecture-neutral way, a new source file,
-drivers/base/topology.c, is to export the 4 attributes.

 For an architecture to support this feature, it must define some of
 these macros in include/asm-XXX/topology.h:
 #define topology_physical_package_id(cpu)
 #define topology_core_id(cpu)

 #define topology_thread_cpumask(cpu)

 The type of **_id is int.
 The type of siblings is (const) struct cpumask *.
