Subject: [GIT pull] scheduler fixes for 4.17

Linus,

please pull the latest sched-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git sched-urgent-for-linus

A set of scheduler fixes:

 - Two patches addressing the problem that the scheduler allows under
   certain conditions user space tasks to be scheduled on CPUs which are
   not yet fully booted which causes a few subtle and hard to debug issue.

 - Add a missing runqueue clock update in the deadline scheduler which
   triggers a warning under certain circumstances.

 - Fix a silly typo in the scheduler header file.

Thanks,

	tglx
