From: Tim Chen <tim.c.chen@linux.intel.com>

The current rebuild_sched_domains will only rebuild the sched domains
unless the cpumask changes.  However, in some scenarios when the
topology flag value changes, it will not rebuild the sched domain.

We create a regenerate_sched_domains function that will always
rebuild all the sched domains to take care of this scenario.

You can force rebuild_sched_domains() to rebuild the sched_domain
hierarchy by just implementing arch_update_cpu_topology(). Make it
return 1 when you want the hierarchy to be updated.

Implementing another forcing mechanism seems redundant. I must be
missing something?

I just did exactly that to set the SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag for
big.LITTLE platforms on arm/arm64 as we don't know if the flag should be
set until cpufreq has initialized.

Sure, I'll take a look at using arch_update_cpu_topology. 

Thanks.
