Yeah, so this patch was a bit of a trainwreck:
- it didn't build on 32-bit kernels
- a stale SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT definition was left around
- the title and th changelog lies actively: it's not a removal, but a complex
combination of a rename, replace and removal ...
I've fixed that all with the patch below, but _please_ be more careful in the
future when changing scheduler code, and please also read your changelogs and
patch titles before sending them out to make sure the label matches contents.
I'll push it all out in tip:sched/core if it passes testing.
Thanks,
Ingo

Subject: [PATCH] sched/fair: Rename SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT to NICE_0_LOAD_SHIFT and remove SCHED_LOAD_SCALE
After cleaning up the sched metrics, there are two definitions that are
ambiguous and confusing: SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT and SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT.
Resolve this:
- Rename SCHED_LOAD_SHIFT to NICE_0_LOAD_SHIFT, which better reflects what
it is.
- Replace SCHED_LOAD_SCALE use with SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE and remove SCHED_LOAD_SCALE.
