Subject: [PATCH 3/4] sched/deadline: Make DL capacity-aware

From: Luca Abeni <luca.abeni@...tannapisa.it>

The current SCHED_DEADLINE (DL) scheduler uses a global EDF scheduling
algorithm w/o considering CPU capacity or task utilization.
This works well on homogeneous systems where DL tasks are guaranteed
to have a bounded tardiness but presents issues on heterogeneous
systems.

A DL task can migrate to a CPU which does not have enough CPU capacity
to correctly serve the task (e.g. a task w/ 70ms runtime and 100ms
period on a CPU w/ 512 capacity).

Add the DL fitness function dl_task_fits_capacity() for DL admission
control on heterogeneous systems. A task fits onto a CPU if:

    CPU original capacity / 1024 >= task runtime / task deadline

Use this function on heterogeneous systems to try to find a CPU which
meets this criterion during task wakeup, push and offline migration.

On homogeneous systems the original behavior of the DL admission
control should be retained.
