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:

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 outside 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, we re-use the lower level sgc directly.
Have you evaluated the impact on the imbalance and next_update fields ?

-v3: Mainly updated according to Valentin's comments. While the approach was started by me, Valentin contributed the most useful edit and comments. Thanks, Valentin!
- fixed a potential issue that re-used sgc might be located in
a sched_domain which will be degenrated;
- code cleanup to make it more readable
While Valentin started another approach which completely removed overlapped sched_group, we both agree that it is better to have a solution which won't touch machines without 3-hops issue first: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/jhjpn1a232z.mognet@arm.com/
