[PATCH v2 5/7] x86/sched: Remove SD_ASYM_PACKING from the "SMT" domain

[Ricardo Neri]

There is no difference between any of the SMT siblings of a physical core.
asym_packing load balancing is not needed among siblings.

When balancing load among physical cores, the scheduler now considers the
state of the siblings when checking the priority of a CPU.
