Subject: [PATCH 16/16] sched: Select least loaded CPU on preferred NUMA node

This patch replaces find_idlest_cpu_node with task_numa_find_cpu.
find_idlest_cpu_node has two critical limitations. It does not take the
scheduling class into account when calculating the load and it is unsuitable
for using when comparing loads between NUMA nodes.

task_numa_find_cpu uses similar load calculations to wake_affine() when
selecting the least loaded CPU within a scheduling domain common to the
source and destimation nodes. It is not implemented in this patch but
potentially the information can be used to avoid overloading the destination
node relative to the source node.
