Subject[PATCH 07/16] sched: Make SD_BALANCE_WAKE a topology flag
Date
For systems with the SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag set on higher level in the
sched_domain hierarchy we need a way to enable wake-up balancing for the
lower levels as well as we may want to balance tasks that don't fit the
capacity of the previous cpu.

We have the option of introducing a new topology flag to express this
requirement, or let the existing SD_BALANCE_WAKE flag be set by the
architecture as a topology flag. The former means introducing yet
another flag, the latter breaks the current meaning of topology flags.
None of the options are really desirable.
