[PATCH] sched/topology: Optimize sched_numa_find_nth_cpu() by inlining bsearch()

[Kuan-Wei Chiu]

When CONFIG_MITIGATION_RETPOLINE is enabled, indirect function calls
become costly. Replacing bsearch() with an inline version of the binary
search reduces the overhead of indirect function calls, improving
efficiency. This change also results in a reduction of the code size by
128 bytes on x86-64 systems.

Before the patch:
$ size ./kernel/sched/build_utility.o
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  40113   12379    2176   54668    d58c ./kernel/sched/build_utility.o

After the patch:
$ size ./kernel/sched/build_utility.o
   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
  39993   12371    2176   54540    d50c ./kernel/sched/build_utility.o
