    [PATCH] Don't let processes be scheduled on CPU-less nodes (1/3) · 2eb57dd2

    sched_best_cpu schedules processes on nodes based on node_nr_running.  For
    CPU-less nodes, this is always 0, and thus sched_best_cpu tends to migrate
    tasks to these nodes, which eventually get remigrated elsewhere.
    
    This patch adds include/linux/topology.h, and modifies all includes of
    asm/topology.h to linux/topology.h.  A subsequent patch in this series adds
    helper functions to linux/topology.h to ensure processes are only migrated
    to nodes with CPUs.
    
    Test compiled and booted by Andrew Theurer (habanero@us.ibm.com) on both
    x440 and ppc64.
