Subject: [GIT PULL] scheduler fixes

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

   # HEAD: 1b02cd6a2d7f3e2a6a5262887d2cb2912083e42f sched/deadline: Correctly handle active 0-lag timers

A deadline scheduler warning/race fix, and a cfs_period_us quota 
calculation workaround where the real fix looks too involved to merge 
immediately.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
