Subject: [PATCH 3.16 42/86] sched: Add sched_smt_active()

3.16.68-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ben Hutchings <ben@...adent.org.uk>

Add the sched_smt_active() function needed for some x86 speculation
mitigations.  This was introduced upstream by commits 1b568f0aabf2
"sched/core: Optimize SCHED_SMT", ba2591a5993e "sched/smt: Update
sched_smt_present at runtime", c5511d03ec09 "sched/smt: Make
sched_smt_present track topology", and 321a874a7ef8 "sched/smt: Expose
sched_smt_present static key".  The upstream implementation uses the
static_key_{disable,enable}_cpuslocked() functions, which aren't
practical to backport.
