Smells like a bad attempt to (again) revive commit:
0437e109e184 ("sched: zap the migration init / cache-hot balancing code")
Yes, the migration cost would ideally be per domain, in practise it all
sucks because more tunables is more confusion. And as that commit
states, runtime measurements suck too, they cause run-to-run variation
which causes repeatability issues and degrade boot times.
Static numbers suck worse, because they'll be wrong for everyone.
