Now that we have an accurate view of the physical topology we need to represent it correctly to the scheduler. Generally MC should equal the LLC in the system, but there are a number of special cases that need to be dealt with. In the case of NUMA in socket, we need to assure that the sched domain we build for the MC layer isn't larger than the DIE above it. Similarly for LLC's that might exist in cross socket interconnect or directory hardware we need to assure that MC is shrunk to the socket or NUMA node. This patch builds a sibling mask for the LLC, and then picks the smallest of LLC, socket siblings, or NUMA node siblings, which gives us the behavior described above. This is ever so slightly different than the similar alternative where we look for a cache layer less than or equal to the socket/NUMA siblings. The logic to pick the MC layer affects all arm64 machines, but only changes the behavior for DT/MPIDR systems if the NUMA domain is smaller than the core siblings (generally set to the cluster). Potentially this fixes a possible bug in DT systems, but really it only affects ACPI systems where the core siblings is correctly set to the socket siblings. Thus all currently available ACPI systems should have MC equal to LLC, including the NUMA in socket machines where the LLC is partitioned between the NUMA nodes.
