Impact: tweak task balancing to save power more agressively

Active load balancing is a process by which migration thread
is woken up on the target CPU in order to pull current
running task on another package into this newly idle
package.

This method is already in use with normal load_balance(),
this patch introduces this method to new idle cpus when
sched_mc is set to POWERSAVINGS_BALANCE_WAKEUP.

This logic provides effective consolidation of short running
daemon jobs in a almost idle system

The side effect of this patch may be ping-ponging of tasks
if the system is moderately utilised. May need to adjust the
iterations before triggering.

Impact: tweak task wakeup to save power more agressively

Preferred wakeup cpu (from a semi idle package) has been
nominated in find_busiest_group() in the previous patch.  Use
this information in sched_mc_preferred_wakeup_cpu in function
wake_idle() to bias task wakeups if the following conditions
are satisfied:

        - The present cpu that is trying to wakeup the process is
          idle and waking the target process on this cpu will
          potentially wakeup a completely idle package
        - The previous cpu on which the target process ran is
          also idle and hence selecting the previous cpu may
          wakeup a semi idle cpu package
        - The task being woken up is allowed to run in the
          nominated cpu (cpu affinity and restrictions)

Basically if both the current cpu and the previous cpu on
which the task ran is idle, select the nominated cpu from semi
idle cpu package for running the new task that is waking up.

Cache hotness is considered since the actual biasing happens
in wake_idle() only if the application is cache cold.

This technique will effectively move short running bursty jobs in
a mostly idle system.

Wakeup biasing for power savings gets automatically disabled if
system utilisation increases due to the fact that the probability
of finding both this_cpu and prev_cpu idle decreases.

Impact: extend load-balancing code (no change in behavior yet)

When the system utilisation is low and more cpus are idle,
then the process waking up from sleep should prefer to
wakeup an idle cpu from semi-idle cpu package (multi core
package) rather than a completely idle cpu package which
would waste power.

Use the sched_mc balance logic in find_busiest_group() to
nominate a preferred wakeup cpu.

This info can be stored in appropriate sched_domain, but
updating this info in all copies of sched_domain is not
practical.  Hence this information is stored in root_domain
struct which is one copy per partitioned sched domain.
The root_domain can be accessed from each cpu's runqueue
and there is one copy per partitioned sched domain.

Impact: change load-balancing direction to match that of irqbalanced

Just in case two groups have identical load, prefer to move load to lower
logical cpu number rather than the present logic of moving to higher logical
number.

find_busiest_group() tries to look for a group_leader that has spare capacity
to take more tasks and freeup an appropriate least loaded group.  Just in case
there is a tie and the load is equal, then the group with higher logical number
is favoured.  This conflicts with user space irqbalance daemon that will move
interrupts to lower logical number if the system utilisation is very low.

Impact: extend range of /sys/devices/system/cpu/sched_mc_power_savings

Currently the sched_mc/smt_power_savings variable is a boolean,
which either enables or disables topology based power savings.
This patch extends the behaviour of the variable from boolean to
multivalued, such that based on the value, we decide how
aggressively do we want to perform powersavings balance at
appropriate sched domain based on topology.

Variable levels of power saving tunable would benefit end user to
match the required level of power savings vs performance
trade-off depending on the system configuration and workloads.

This version makes the sched_mc_power_savings global variable to
take more values (0,1,2).  Later versions can have a single
tunable called sched_power_savings instead of
sched_{mc,smt}_power_savings.

Impact: cleanup

BALANCE_FOR_MC_POWER and similar macros defined in sched.h are
not constants and have various condition checks and significant
amount of code that is not suitable to be contain in a macro.
Also there could be side effects on the expressions passed to
some of them like test_sd_parent().

This patch converts all complex macros related to power savings
balance to inline functions.

Impact: fix potential APIC crash

In determining the destination apicid, there are usually three cpumasks
that are considered: the incoming cpumask arg, cfg->domain and the
cpu_online_mask.  Since we are just introducing the cpu_mask_to_apicid_and
function, make sure it includes the cpu_online_mask in it's evaluation.
[Added with this patch.]

There are two io_apic.c functions that did not previously use the
cpu_online_mask:  setup_IO_APIC_irq and msi_compose_msg.  Both of these
simply used cpu_mask_to_apicid(cfg->domain & TARGET_CPUS), and all but
one arch (NUMAQ[*]) returns only online cpus in the TARGET_CPUS mask,
so the behavior is identical for all cases.

[*: NUMAQ bug?]

Note that alloc_cpumask_var is only used for the 32-bit cases where
it's highly likely that the cpumask set size will be small and therefore
CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n.  But if that's not the case, failing the allocate
will cause the same return value as the default.

This done for conflict prevention: we merge it into the cpus4096 tree
because upcoming cpumask changes will touch apic.c that would collide
with x86/apic otherwise.
