sched/topology: Avoid pointless rebuild



Fix partition_sched_domains() to try and preserve the existing machine
wide domain instead of unconditionally destroying it. We do this by
attempting to allocate the new single domain, only when that fails to
we reuse the fallback_doms.

When using fallback_doms we need to first destroy and then recreate
because both the old and new could be backed by it.
