K Prateek Nayak 1eec89a671 sched/topology: Remove sched_domain_topology_level::flags
Support for overlapping domains added in commit e3589f6c81 ("sched:
Allow for overlapping sched_domain spans") also allowed forcefully
setting SD_OVERLAP for !NUMA domains via FORCE_SD_OVERLAP sched_feat().

Since NUMA domains had to be presumed overlapping to ensure correct
behavior, "sched_domain_topology_level::flags" was introduced. NUMA
domains added the SDTL_OVERLAP flag would ensure SD_OVERLAP was always
added during build_sched_domains() for these domains, even when
FORCE_SD_OVERLAP was off.

Condition for adding the SD_OVERLAP flag at the aforementioned commit
was as follows:

    if (tl->flags & SDTL_OVERLAP || sched_feat(FORCE_SD_OVERLAP))
            sd->flags |= SD_OVERLAP;

The FORCE_SD_OVERLAP debug feature was removed in commit af85596c74
("sched/topology: Remove FORCE_SD_OVERLAP") which left the NUMA domains
as the exclusive users of SDTL_OVERLAP, SD_OVERLAP, and SD_NUMA flags.

Get rid of SDTL_OVERLAP and SD_OVERLAP as they have become redundant
and instead rely on SD_NUMA to detect the only overlapping domain
currently supported. Since SDTL_OVERLAP was the only user of
"tl->flags", get rid of "sched_domain_topology_level::flags" too.
