x86/smpboot: avoid SMT domain attach/destroy if SMT is not enabled
Currently, the SMT domain is added into sched_domain_topology by default. If cpu_attach_domain() finds that the CPU SMT domain’s cpumask_weight is just 1, it will destroy it. On a large machine, such as one with 512 cores, this results in 512 redundant domain attach/destroy operations. Avoid these unnecessary operations by simply checking cpu_smt_num_threads and skip SMT domain if the SMT domain is not enabled.
