Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Major changes:
- Reworked CPU capacity code, for better SMP load balancing on
systems with assymetric CPUs. (Vincent Guittot, Morten Rasmussen)
- Reworked RT task SMP balancing to be push based instead of pull
based, to reduce latencies on large CPU count systems. (Steven
Rostedt)
- SCHED_DEADLINE support updates and fixes. (Juri Lelli)
- SCHED_DEADLINE task migration support during CPU hotplug. (Wanpeng Li)
- x86 mwait-idle optimizations and fixes. (Mike Galbraith, Len Brown)
- sched/numa improvements. (Rik van Riel)
- various cleanups"
