Subject: [RFC/PATCH 1/3] sched: support arch override of sched_group cpu power

Add a new sched domain flag, SD_ASYM_CPU_POWER, which signifies that
the architecture may override the cpu power for a cpu via a hook in
init_sched_groups_power().  Add a dummy definition of arch_cpu_power()
which conforms with the existing behavior.
