Right

AIUI rq->sd->groups->sgc->capacity should be the capacity of the rq's CPU
(IOW the groups here should be made of single CPUs).

This should be true regardless of overlapping domains, since they sit on top
of the regular domains. Let me paint an example with a simple 2-core SMT2
system:

MC [ ]
SMT [ ][ ]
0 1 2 3

cpu_rq(0)->sd will point to the sched_domain of CPU0 at SMT level (it is the
"base domain", IOW the lowest domain in the topology hierarchy). Its groups
will be:

{0} ----> {1}
^ /
`-----'

and sd->groups will point at the group spanning the "local" CPU, in our case
CPU0, and thus here will be a group containing only CPU0.


I do not know why sched_group_capacity is used here however. As I understand
things, we could use cpu_capacity() unconditionally.
