4/5
One of the problems with the multilevel balance-on-fork/exec is that it
needs to jump through hoops to satisfy sched-domain's locking semantics
(that is, you may traverse your own domain when not preemptable, and
you may traverse others' domains when holding their runqueue lock).
balance-on-exec had to potentially migrate between more than one CPU before
finding a final CPU to migrate to, and balance-on-fork needed to potentially
take multiple runqueue locks.
So bite the bullet and make sched-domains go completely RCU. This actually
simplifies the code quite a bit.
