Tested-by: Xiongfeng Wang <wangxiongfeng2@xxxxxxxxxx>

Tested on D05 board. 'lscpu' prints the following info:
localhost:~ # lscpu
Architecture: aarch64
Byte Order: Little Endian
CPU(s): 64
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-63
Thread(s) per core: 1
Core(s) per socket: 32
Socket(s): 2
NUMA node(s): 4
L1d cache: 32K
L1i cache: 48K
L2 cache: 1024K
L3 cache: 16384K
NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-15
NUMA node1 CPU(s): 16-31
NUMA node2 CPU(s): 32-47
NUMA node3 CPU(s): 48-63

'sched_domain' is as follows
