Subject: [PATCH 0/6] sched/deadline, (rt): Sched class cleanups

While trying to improve the Deadline sched class behaviour for
asymmetric CPU capacity systems I came across some possible
cleanups for DL (and RT).

Overview:

[PATCH 1/6] - Remove `struct dl_bandwidth def_dl_bandwidth`.

[PATCH 2/6] - Move functions into DL sched class which don't have to
              be exported.

[PATCH 3/6] - Merge two DL admission control functions which provide
              very similar functionality.

[PATCH 4/6] - Use DL rb_entry() macros and cached rbtree wrapper
              `rb_first_cached()` consistently.

[PATCH 5/6] - Remove unused !CONFIG_SMP function definitions in DL/RT.

[PATCH 6/6] - Remove redundant function parameter in DL/RT.

Dietmar Eggemann (6):
  sched/deadline: Remove unused def_dl_bandwidth
  sched/deadline: Move bandwidth mgmt and reclaim functions into sched
    class source file
  sched/deadline: Merge dl_task_can_attach() and dl_cpu_busy()
  sched/deadline: Use __node_2_[pdl|dle]() and rb_first_cached()
    consistently
  sched/deadline,rt: Remove unused functions for !CONFIG_SMP
  sched/deadline,rt: Remove unused parameter from
    pick_next_[rt|dl]_entity()
