Subject: [PATCH 15/19] sched/numa: Use group_weights to identify if migration degrades locality

On NUMA_BACKPLANE and NUMA_GLUELESS_MESH systems, tasks/memory should be
consolidated to the closest group of nodes. In such a case, relying on
group_fault metric may not always help to consolidate. There can always
be a case where a node closer to the preferred node may have lesser
faults than a node further away from the preferred node. In such a case,
moving to node with more faults might avoid numa consolidation.

Using group_weight would help to consolidate task/memory around the
preferred_node.

While here, to be on the conservative side, don't override migrate thread
degrades locality logic for CPU_NEWLY_IDLE load balancing.

Note: Similar problems exist with should_numa_migrate_memory and will be
dealt separately.
