Subject: [34-longterm 088/247] sched: Fix wake_affine() vs RT tasks

From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@...llo.nl>

                   -------------------
    This is a commit scheduled for the next v2.6.34 longterm release.
    If you see a problem with using this for longterm, please comment.
                   -------------------

commit e51fd5e22e12b39f49b1bb60b37b300b17378a43 upstream.

Mike reports that since e9e9250b (sched: Scale down cpu_power due to RT
tasks), wake_affine() goes funny on RT tasks due to them still having a
!0 weight and wake_affine() still subtracts that from the rq weight.

Since nobody should be using se->weight for RT tasks, set the value to
zero. Also, since we now use ->cpu_power to normalize rq weights to
account for RT cpu usage, add that factor into the imbalance computation.
