Subject: [PATCH 7/9] numa, sched: Improve staggered convergence
Add/tune two convergence mechanisms:
- add a sysctl for the fault moving average weight factor
and change it to 3
- add an initial settlement delay of 2 periods
- add back parts of the throttling that triggers after a
task migrates, to let it settle - with a sysctl that is
set to 0 for now.
This tunes the code to be in harmony with our changed and
more precise 'cpupid' fault statistics, which allows us to
converge more aggressively without introducing destabilizing
turbulences into the convergence flow.
