Some Intel cores in a package can be boosted to a higher turbo frequency
with ITMT 3.0 technology. The scheduler can use the asymmetric packing
feature to move tasks to the more capable cores.

If ITMT is enabled, add SD_ASYM_PACKING flag to the thread and core
sched domains to enable asymmetric packing.
