This patch also removes the additional -dflags- parameter used when

I would kind of ... disagree.
All the commit msg is constructed using passive structure, the suggestion
would actually break that. And it does 'sound' bit imperative but I guess
that is subjective. I'd rather stay with impersonal structure (which is
applied through out the whole patchset).
It's mainly about the 'This patch' formulation, some take exception to that :-)

building sched domains as the asymmetry flags are now being set
directly in sd_init.
Few nits below, but beyond that:

Thanks a lot for the review and testing!

Readability nit: That could be made into an else if ().
It could but then this way the -comment- gets more exposed.
But that might be my personal perception so I can change that.
As always those are quite subjective! Methink something like this would
still draw attention to the offline case:

               /*
                * Count how many unique capacities this domain covers. If a
                * capacity isn't covered, we need to check if any CPU with
                * that capacity is actually online, otherwise it can be
                * ignored.
                */
                if (cpumask_intersects(sched_domain_span(sd), entry->cpu_mask)) {
                        ++asym_cap_count;
                } else if (cpumask_intersects(entry->cpu_mask, cpu_map)) {
                        sd_asym_flags &= ~SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY_FULL;
                        if (asym_cap_count > 1)
                                break;
                }
Noted.
Will wait for some more comments before sending out 'polished' version.
