Yeah, if you will give a better name for the flag, you'll not have to
comment the code.

You change it from scx_pick_idle_cpu() to pick_idle_cpu_from_node()
in patch 7 just to revert it back in patch 8...
You can use scx_pick_idle_cpu() in patch 7 already because
scx_builtin_idle_per_node is always disabled, and you always
follow the NUMA_FLAT_NODE path. Here you will just add the
SCX_PICK_IDLE_NODE flag.
That's the point of separating functionality and control patches. In
patch 7 you may need to mention explicitly that your new per-node
idle masks are unconditionally disabled, and will be enabled in the
last patch of the series, so some following patches will detail the
implementation.
