Subject: [PATCH v5 02/10] powerpc/smp: Merge Power9 topology with Power topology

A new sched_domain_topology_level was added just for Power9. However the
same can be achieved by merging powerpc_topology with power9_topology
and makes the code more simpler especially when adding a new sched
domain.

Changelog v1 -> v2:
	Replaced a reference to cpu_smt_mask with per_cpu(cpu_sibling_map, cpu)
	since cpu_smt_mask is only defined under CONFIG_SCHED_SMT
