[PATCH v3 3/3] sched/topology: reorganize topology_span_sane() checking order

From: Yury Norov
Date: Mon Sep 02 2024 - 14:37:02 EST


The function currently makes 3 checks:

1. mc == mi;
2. cpumask_equal(mc, mi);
3. cpumask_intersects(mc, mi).

Historically, 2 last checks build a single condition for if() statement.

Logically, #1 and #2 should be tested together, because for the topology
sanity checking purposes, they do the same thing. In contrast, #3 tests
for intersection, which is a different logical unit.

This patch creates a helper for #1 and #2 and puts the corresponding
comment on top of the helper; unloading the main topology_span_sane().
