Subject: [RFC 05/60] sched: Allow to retrieve the sched_domain_topology

While it is possible to simply overwrite the sched_domain_topology,
it was not possible to retrieve the sched_domain_topology to modify
it instead. Add a function to enable that use case.

Note, that this does not help with the already existing potential
memory leak, when one dynamically allocated sched_domain_topology
is replaced with another one.
