How can I miss it.. Obviously its better :)
See if below one looks better (Attached too in case gmail screws up my mail)..

We are saving first scheduling domain for a cpu in build_sched_domains() by iterating over the nested sd->child list. We don't actually need to do it this way.
tl will be equal to sched_domain_topology for the first iteration and so we can set *per_cpu_ptr(d.sd, i) based on that. So, save pointer to first SD while running the iteration loop over tl's.
