It seems that it can be done like:

	for_each_domain(cpu, sd) {
		if (!(sd->flags & SD_LOAD_BALANCE))
                	continue;

		if (sd->flags & SD_BALANCE_EXEC)
		...
	}

Looks like this fixed level constants does not consider NUMA domains.
Doesn't accessing sbm->sd[type][level] in the above while loop cause a
problem on big NUMA machines?
