here is a quick test update based on Peter's fairness patch above:

- Kernel under test: 
A: Core scheduling v5 community base + Peter's fairness patch (by reverting Aaron's fairness patch)
https://github.com/digitalocean/linux-coresched/tree/coresched/v5-v5.5.y + Peter's patch above
B: Core scheduling v5 community base (with Aaron's fairness patchset)
https://github.com/digitalocean/linux-coresched/tree/coresched/v5-v5.5.y (with Aaron's fairness patch)

- Test results briefing:
OVERALL PERFORMANCE ARE THE SAME FOR FOLLOWING 3 TEST SETS, BETWEEN 2 KERNEL TEST BUILDS

- Test set based on sysbench 1.1.0-bd4b418:
1: sysbench cpu in cgroup cpu 0 + sysbench cpu in cgroup cpu 1 (192 workload tasks for each cgroup)
2: sysbench mysql in cgroup mysql 0 + sysbench mysql in cgroup mysql 1 (192 workload tasks for each cgroup)
3: sysbench cpu in cgroup cpu 0 + sysbench mysql in cgroup mysql 0 (192 workload tasks for each cgroup)

- Test environment:
Intel Xeon Server platform
CPU(s):              192
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-191
Thread(s) per core:  2
Core(s) per socket:  48
Socket(s):           2
NUMA node(s):        4

- Test results:

Note: 
1: test results in following tables are Tput normalized to default baseline
2: test setting in following tables:
2.1: default -> core scheduling disabled
2.2: coresched -> core scheduling enabled
3. default test results are reused between 2 kernel test builds
