My snippet needs rq which is currently referenced in cpu_attach_domain() but
not in update_top_cache_domain().  I could just as easily do it in 
update_top_cache_domain().  Either way is fine with me.

OK, will add a comment.  I like the macro because the code is cleaner if/when 
multiple sets are created.
