I noticed this while reviewing/testing the patch and left it because on
the microbenchmark, it had measurable impact of using the direct check
as compared to going through the scheduler domains every time to figure
out if we shared the LLC or not.

This def looks better.

pkg_srid (shared resource id)?

if there is no sd with shared pkg resources, then id has to be set to
'cpu'.

Otherwise it looks good.
