Subject: [RESEND PATCH v5 2/2] sched/fair: Scan cluster before scanning LLC in wake-up path

From: Barry Song <song.bao.hua@...ilicon.com>

For platforms having clusters like Kunpeng920, CPUs within the same cluster
have lower latency when synchronizing and accessing shared resources like
cache. Thus, this patch tries to find an idle cpu within the cluster of the
target CPU before scanning the whole LLC to gain lower latency.

Note neither Kunpeng920 nor x86 Jacobsville supports SMT, so this patch
doesn't consider SMT for this moment.

Testing has been done on Kunpeng920 by pinning tasks to one numa and two
numa. On Kunpeng920, Each numa has 8 clusters and each cluster has 4 CPUs.

With this patch, We noticed enhancement on tbench within one numa or cross
two numa.
