Subject: [git pull] scheduler fixes


Linus, please pull the latest scheduler fixes git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mingo/linux-2.6-sched.git

Two cross-subsystem changes:

 arch/um/kernel/process.c:  scheduler related prototype cleanup
           fs/proc/base.c:  latencytop fixes

Thanks,

	Ingo

------------------>
Balbir Singh (1):
      sched: remove duplicate code from sched_fair.c

Harvey Harrison (2):
      sched: fix signedness warnings in sched.c
      sched: add declaration of sched_tail to sched.h

Hiroshi Shimamoto (3):
      latencytop: fix kernel panic while reading latency proc file
      latencytop: fix memory leak on latency proc file
      latencytop: change /proc task_struct access method

Ingo Molnar (2):
      sched: make early bootup sched_clock() use safer
      sched: clean up __pick_last_entity() a bit
