As long as NUMA diameter > 2, building sched_domain by sibling's child
domain will definitely create a sched_domain with sched_group which will
span out of the sched_domain:
+------+ +------+ +-------+ +------+
| node | 12 |node | 20 | node | 12 |node |
| 0 +---------+1 +--------+ 2 +-------+3 |
+------+ +------+ +-------+ +------+
domain0 node0 node1 node2 node3
domain1 node0+1 node0+1 node2+3 node2+3
+
domain2 node0+1+2 |
group: node0+1 |
group:node2+3 <-------------------+
when node2 is added into the domain2 of node0, kernel is using the child
domain of node2's domain2, which is domain1(node2+3). Node 3 is outside
the span of the domain including node0+1+2.
This will make load_balance() run based on screwed avg_load and group_type
in the sched_group spanning out of the sched_domain, and it also makes
select_task_rq_fair() pick an idle CPU out of the sched_domain.
Real servers which suffer from this problem include Kunpeng920 and 8-node
Sun Fire X4600-M2, at least.
Here we move to use the *child* domain of the *child* domain of node2's
domain2 as the new added sched_group. At the same time, we re-use the
lower level sgc directly.
+------+ +------+ +-------+ +------+
| node | 12 |node | 20 | node | 12 |node |
| 0 +---------+1 +--------+ 2 +-------+3 |
+------+ +------+ +-------+ +------+
domain0 node0 node1 +- node2 node3
|
domain1 node0+1 node0+1 | node2+3 node2+3
|
domain2 node0+1+2 |
group: node0+1 |
group:node2 <-------------------+

-v2:
merged Valentin's edit on v1, thus fixed two issues
* "one cpu in one numa" was not supported
* the capacity of groups from grandchild couldn't be updated
Thanks for Valentin's nice edit!
And also added some comments in build_balance_mask
