Holding hotplug lock is not a requirement anymore for callers of sched_
init_domains after commit:

  6acce3ef8452 ("sched: Remove get_online_cpus() usage")

Update the relative comment preceding init_sched_domains().

<title>sched/topology: Skip duplicate group rewrites in build_sched_groups()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:67d4f6ff2fb69e02bd6365a91ca3939b7a14deac</id>
<content type='text'>
While staring at build_sched_domains(), I realized that get_group()
does several duplicate (thus useless) writes.

If you take the Arm Juno r0 (LITTLEs = [0, 3, 4, 5], bigs = [1, 2]), the
sched_group build flow would look like this:

('MC[cpu]-&gt;sg' means 'per_cpu_ptr(&amp;tl-&gt;data-&gt;sg, cpu)' with 'tl == MC')

build_sched_groups(MC[CPU0]-&gt;sd, CPU0)
  get_group(0) -&gt; MC[CPU0]-&gt;sg
  get_group(3) -&gt; MC[CPU3]-&gt;sg
  get_group(4) -&gt; MC[CPU4]-&gt;sg
  get_group(5) -&gt; MC[CPU5]-&gt;sg

build_sched_groups(DIE[CPU0]-&gt;sd, CPU0)
  get_group(0) -&gt; DIE[CPU0]-&gt;sg
  get_group(1) -&gt; DIE[CPU1]-&gt;sg &lt;=================+
						  |
build_sched_groups(MC[CPU1]-&gt;sd, CPU1)            |
  get_group(1) -&gt; MC[CPU1]-&gt;sg                    |
  get_group(2) -&gt; MC[CPU2]-&gt;sg                    |
						  |
build_sched_groups(DIE[CPU1]-&gt;sd, CPU1)           ^
  get_group(1) -&gt; DIE[CPU1]-&gt;sg  } We've set up these two up here!
  get_group(3) -&gt; DIE[CPU0]-&gt;sg  }

From this point on, we will only use sched_groups that have been
previously visited &amp; initialized. The only new operation will
be which group pointer we affect to sd-&gt;groups.

On the Juno r0 we get 32 get_group() calls, every single one of them
writing to a sched_group-&gt;cpumask. However, all of the data structures
we need are set up after 8 visits (see above).

Return early from get_group() if we've already visited (and thus
initialized) the sched_group we're looking at. Overlapping domains
are not affected as they do not use build_sched_groups().

Tested on a Juno and a 2 * (Xeon E5-2690) system.

( FWIW I initially checked the refs for both sg &amp;&amp; sg-&gt;sgc, but figured if
  they weren't both 0 or &gt; 1 then something must have gone wrong, so I
  threw in a WARN_ON(). )

No change in functionality intended.

The comment was introduced (pre 2.6.12) by:

  8a7a2318dc07 ("[PATCH] sched: consolidate sched domains")

and referred to sched_group-&gt;cpu_power. This was folded into
sched_group-&gt;sched_group_power in

  commit 9c3f75cbd144 ("sched: Break out cpu_power from the sched_group structure")

The comment was then updated in:

  ced549fa5fc1 ("sched: Remove remaining dubious usage of "power"")

but should have replaced "sg-&gt;cpu_capacity" with
"sg-&gt;sched_group_capacity". Do that now.

<title>sched_domain: Annotate RCU pointers properly</title>

The scheduler uses RCU API in various places to access sched_domain
pointers. These cause sparse errors as below.

Many new errors show up because of an annotation check I added to
rcu_assign_pointer(). Let us annotate the pointers correctly which also
will help sparse catch any potential future bugs.

This fixes the following sparse errors:

The percpu members of struct sd_data and s_data are declared as:

	struct ... ** __percpu member;

So their type is:

	__percpu pointer to pointer to struct ...

But looking at how they're used, their type should be:

	pointer to __percpu pointer to struct ...

and they should thus be declared as:

	struct ... * __percpu *member;

So fix the placement of '__percpu' in the definition of these
structures.

This addresses a bunch of Sparse's warnings like:

	warning: incorrect type in initializer (different address spaces)
	  expected void const [noderef] &lt;asn:3&gt; *__vpp_verify
	  got struct sched_domain **

All that fancy new Energy-Aware scheduling foo is hidden behind a
static_key, which is awesome if you have the stuff enabled in your
config.

However, when you lack all the prerequisites it doesn't make any sense
to pretend we'll ever actually run this, so provide a little more clue
to the compiler so it can more agressively delete the code.

In its current state, Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) starts automatically
on asymmetric platforms having an Energy Model (EM). However, there are
users who want to have an EM (for thermal management for example), but
don't want EAS with it.

In order to let users disable EAS explicitly, introduce a new sysctl
called 'sched_energy_aware'. It is enabled by default so that EAS can
start automatically on platforms where it makes sense. Flipping it to 0
rebuilds the scheduling domains and disables EAS.

Now that call_rcu()'s callback is not invoked until after all
preempt-disable regions of code have completed (in addition to explicitly
marked RCU read-side critical sections), call_rcu() can be used in place
of call_rcu_sched().  This commit therefore makes that change.

While in the area, this commit also updates an outdated header comment
for for_each_domain().

In order to make sure Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS) will not impact
systems where no Energy Model is available, introduce a static key
guarding the access to EAS code. Since EAS is enabled on a
per-root-domain basis, the static key is enabled when at least one root
domain meets all conditions for EAS.
