Create a dedicated topology table for handling asymetric feature.
The current proposal creates a new level which describes which groups of CPUs
take adavantge of SD_ASYM_PACKING. The useless level will be removed during the
build of the sched_domain topology.
Another solution would be to set SD_ASYM_PACKING in the sd_flags of SMT level
during the boot sequence and before the build of the sched_domain topology.
