>>> CONFIG_NUMA is dependent on CONFIG_SMP for x86 so that caused me to miss

  * sched_group_nodes_bycpu is defined only for the SMP + NUMA case,
    it should not be referenced in the !SMP + NUMA case.

For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.

Based on:
	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git
    +   sched-devel/latest  .../mingo/linux-2.6-sched-devel.git
