No, the topology should at all time be independent of powersavings,
current x86's topology depending on that is one of the biggest warts
ever. Also sched_powersavings, doesn't actually exist anymore.

The NHM-EP from your example should do just two levels since mc and cpu
are identical, I guess we could add a pass that merges identical masks
so you can still specify 3 levels if you want.

The NUMA stuff is done automatically based on SLIT, so you don't need to
go above the socket level.
