schedutil depends on CONFIG_SMP now, so that's not necessary at least
for the time being.

This check is overkill for policies that aren't shared (and we have a
special case for them already).

It looks like you might pass hook here instead of the sg_cpu, cpu pair.

There was a reason why I put the above under the fast_switch_enabled
branch and it was because this check/trace is not necessary otherwise.
