[PATCH 3/3] sched: Disable affine wakeups by default

[Arjan van de Ven <arjan@infradead.org>]

Subject: sched: Disable affine wakeups by default
From: Arjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com>

The global affine wakeup scheduler feature sounds nice, but there is a problem
with this: This is ALSO a per scheduler domain feature already.
By having the global scheduler feature enabled by default, the scheduler domains
no longer have the option to opt out.

There are domains (for example the HT/SMT domain) that have good reason to want
to opt out of this feature.

With this patch they can opt out, while all other domains currently default to
the affine setting anyway.
