No need for the else. And you'll note you're once again inconsistent
with your previous self.

But here I worry about big.little a wee bit. I think we're allowed big
and little cores on the same L3 these days, and you can't directly
compare capacity between them.

Morten / Dietmar, any comments?

Yes, for DynamIQ (big.little successor) systems, those cpus can have different capacity_orig_of() values already.


OK, given that there are asymmetric capacities in L3 cores, we would
probably have something like the below(?) in select_idle_cpu:

          if (!cpumask_test_cpu(cpu, &p->cpus_allowed))
              continue;
+        if (idle_cpu(cpu) && !reduced_capacity(cpu))
+            break;
