[RFC PATCH v4 09/28] sched: Introduce task preferred LLC field

[Chen Yu]

From: Tim Chen <tim.c.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

With cache aware scheduling enabled, each process is assigned
a preferred LLC id, which will be used to quickly identify
the LLC domain this thread prefers to run. This is similar to
numa_preferred_nid for NUMA balance.
