Subject: [PATCH 1/3] sched: fix missing sched tunable recalculation on cpu add/remove

From: Christian Ehrhardt <ehrhardt@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Based on Peter Zijlstras patch suggestion this enables recalculation of the
scheduler tunables in response of a change in the number of cpus.
It also adds a max of eight cpus that are considered in that scaling.

Signed-off-by: Christian Ehrhardt <ehrhardt@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
