Subject: [git pull] scheduler fixes
Linus,
Please pull the latest sched-fixes-for-linus git tree from:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git sched-fixes-for-linus
these are a group of scheduler performance fixes from Peter, Mike and
myself.
Thanks,
Ingo
------------------>
Ingo Molnar (1):
sched: re-tune balancing
Peter Zijlstra (4):
sched: cleanup fair task selection
sched: fix fair preempt check
sched: backward looking buddy
sched: fix buddies for group scheduling
