This is the follow-up work to support cluster scheduler. Previously we have added cluster level in the scheduler for both ARM64[1] and X86[2] to support load balance between clusters to bring more memory bandwidth and decrease cache contention. This patchset, on the other hand, takes care of wake-up path by giving CPUs within the same cluster a try before scanning the whole LLC to benefit those tasks communicating with each other.

Change since v6: - rebase on 6.0-rc1 Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220726074758.46686-1-yangyicong@huawei.com/
Change since v5: - Improve patch 2 according to Peter's suggestion: - use sched_cluster_active to indicate whether cluster is active - consider SMT case and use wrap iteration when scanning cluster - Add Vincent's tag Thanks. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220720081150.22167-1-yangyicong@hisilicon.com/
Change since v4: - rename cpus_share_resources to cpus_share_lowest_cache to be more informative, per Tim - return -1 when nr==0 in scan_cluster(), per Abel Thanks! Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220609120622.47724-1-yangyicong@hisilicon.com/
Change since v3: - fix compile error when !CONFIG_SCHED_CLUSTER, reported by lkp test. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220608095758.60504-1-yangyicong@hisilicon.com/
Change since v2: - leverage SIS_PROP to suspend redundant scanning when LLC is overloaded - remove the ping-pong suppression - address the comment from Tim, thanks. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220126080947.4529-1-yangyicong@hisilicon.com/
Change since v1: - regain the performance data based on v5.17-rc1 - rename cpus_share_cluster to cpus_share_resources per Vincent and Gautham, thanks! Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20211215041149.73171-1-yangyicong@hisilicon.com/
