sched: Extend scheduler's asym packing
We generalize the scheduler's asym packing to provide an ordering
of the cpu beyond just the cpu number. This allows the use of the
ASYM_PACKING scheduler machinery to move loads to preferred CPU in a
sched domain. The preference is defined with the cpu priority
given by arch_asym_cpu_priority(cpu).
We also record the most preferred cpu in a sched group when
we build the cpu's capacity for fast lookup of preferred cpu
during load balancing.
