Personally I'd use 'format' for printf.
To make it obvious that nothing is to be expanded.
But it isn't really worth changing existing 'stuff'.

Currently there are four powerpc specific sched topologies. These are
all statically defined. However not all these topologies are used by
all powerpc systems.
To avoid unnecessary degenerations by the scheduler , masks and flags
are compared. However if the sched topologies are build

Like L2-cache info, coregroup information which is used to determine MC
sched domains is only present on dedicated LPARs. i.e PowerVM doesn't
export coregroup information for shared processor LPARs. Hence disable
creating MC domains on shared LPAR Systems.

The ability to detect if the system is running in a shared processor
mode is helpful in few more generic cases not just in
paravirtualization.
For example: At boot time, different scheduler/ topology flags may be
set based on the processor mode. Hence move it to a more generic file.
If there are shared processor lpars, underlying Hypervisor can have more
virtual cores to handle that actual physical cores.
Starting with Power 9, a core has 2 nearly independent thread groups.
On a shared processors lpars, it helps to pack threads to lesser number
of cores so that the overall
PowerVM systems configured in shared processors mode have some unique
challenges. Some device-tree properties will be missing on a shared
processor. Hence some sched domains may not make sense for shared processor
systems.
Most shared processor systems are over-provisioned. Underlying PowerVM
Currently cpu feature flag is checked whenever powerpc_smt_flags gets
called. This is an unnecessary overhead. CPU_FTR_ASYM_SMT is set based
on the processor and all processors will either have this set or will
have it unset.
Hence only check for the feature flag once and cache it to be used
