Since check_misfit_status() doesn't need sd anymore it looks like that
rcu_dereference(per_cpu(sd_asym_cpucapacity, cpu)) could be replaced by
static_branch_unlikely(&sched_asym_cpucapacity)) in nohz_balancer_kick().
But as you mentioned in an earlier conversation we do need to check sd
because of asymmetric CPU capacity systems w/ exclusive cpusets which
could create symmetric islands (unique capacity_orig among CPUs).
Maybe worth putting a comment here (similar to the one in sis()) so
people don't try to optimize?
