Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] sched/topology: Optimize topology_span_sane()

Optimize topology_span_sane() by removing duplicate comparisons.

Since topology_span_sane() is called inside of for_each_cpu(), each
pervious CPU has already been compared against every other CPU. The
current CPU only needs to be compared against higher-numbered CPUs.

The total number of comparisons is reduced from N * (N - 1) to
N * (N - 1) / 2 on each non-NUMA scheduling domain level.
