Subject: Re: [PATCH v8 -tip 08/26] sched/fair: Snapshot the min_vruntime of

So this is the thing that drags vruntime_fi along when (both?) siblings
are active, right? But should we not do that after pick? Consider 2
tasks a weight 1 and a weight 10 task, one for each sibling. By syncing
the vruntime before picking, the cfs_prio_less() loop will not be able
to distinguish between these two, since they'll both have effectively
the same lag.

If however, you syn after pick, then the weight 1 task will have accreud
far more runtime than the weight 10 task, and consequently the weight 10
task will have preference when a decision will have to be made.

(also, if this were the right place, the whole thing should've been part
of the for_each_cpu() loop right before this)

This seems unfortunate, I think we can do better.

How's something like this?

 - after each pick, such that the pick itself sees the divergence (see
   above); either:

    - pull the vruntime_fi forward, when !fi
    - freeze the vruntime_fi, when newly fi    (A)

 - either way, update vruntime_fi for each cfs_rq in the active
   hierachy.

 - when comparing, and fi, update the vruntime_fi hierachy until we
   encounter a mark from (A), per doing it during the pick, but before
   runtime, this guaranteees it hasn't moved since (A).

XXX, still buggered on SMT>2, imagine having {ta, tb, fi, i} on an SMT4,
then when comparing any two tasks that do not involve the fi, we should
(probably) have pulled them fwd -- but we can't actually pull them,
because then the fi thing would break, mooo.
