- The sched_asym_cpucapacity static key will be enabled.
- The SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag will be set at the lowest sched_domain level that
spans all unique CPU capacity values.
- The SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY_FULL flag will be set at the lowest sched_domain
level that spans all unique CPU capacity values.
- The SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag will be set for any sched_domain that spans
CPUs with any range of asymmetry.
The sched_asym_cpucapacity static key is intended to guard sections of code that
cater to asymmetric CPU capacity systems. Do note however that said key is

As mentioned in the introduction, EAS is only supported on platforms with
asymmetric CPU topologies for now. This requirement is checked at run-time by
