Subject: [PATCH v5 2/5] powerpc/smp: Disable MC domain for shared processor

Like L2-cache info, coregroup information which is used to determine MC
sched domains is only present on dedicated LPARs. i.e PowerVM doesn't
export coregroup information for shared processor LPARs. Hence disable
creating MC domains on shared LPAR Systems.
