[PATCH v2 0/3] sched: Simplify ifdeffery around CONFIG_SCHED_SMT

[Shrikanth Hegde]

Semantics
=========
- For CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=y:
    No functional change.
- For CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=n:
    - cpu_smt_mask(cpu) becomes cpumask_of(cpu), effectively making it
      per CPU with no siblings.
    - sched_smt_present remains defined, but never becomes active:
    	 Since cpumask_weight(cpumask_of(cpu)) == 1

Performance impact
==================
- CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=y:
    No change in generated code.
- CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=n:
    - Small increase in text size (~0.01%) due to removal of compile-time
      stubs. Most paths remain effectively dead due to static keys.
    - Fast paths are protected using IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SCHED_SMT).

With that, cpu_smt_mask() to be used unconditionally and reduces
CONFIG_SCHED_SMT-specific code paths, improving readability and
maintainability.

This leaves the remaining use of CONFIG_SCHED_SMT mainly for topology
handling bits.

Since v1[1]:
- Dropped changes for stop_core_cpuslocked. intel_ifs is the only
  user and it gets compiled with SCHED_SMT always. Added comments
  around it why ifdefs are still being kept.
- Decided not to add sched_smt_active checks for sched_core_cpu_deactivate
  and sched_core_cpu_starting, they bail out if weight(smt_mask) == 1.
  Hence core_lock won't be held for long. It is not fastpath either.
- Thanks to Valentin Schneider and Tejun Heo for checking out the series
  and the feedback.
