sysfs entries 'sched_mc_power_savings' and 'sched_smt_power_savings' in
/sys/devices/system/cpu/ control the MC/SMT power savings policy for the
scheduler.

Based on the values (1-enable, 0-disable) for these controls, sched groups
cpu power will be determined for different domains.  When power savings
policy is enabled and under light load conditions, scheduler will minimize
the physical packages/cpu cores carrying the load and thus conserving
power(with a perf impact based on the workload characteristics...  see OLS
2005 CMP kernel scheduler paper for more details..)
