Let lable A=se->latency_weight, B=curr->latency_weight, C=A-B.
1 A>0 B>0
::C=A-B<0, min(C,A)=C, latency decrease, C is the real diff value no matter
what A is. That means it can be very 'long'(-sched_latency) and vdiff is
more possible to be in <= 0 case and return -1.
::C=A-B>0, min(C,A)=A, latency increase, but it is conservative. Limit to
A/1024*sched_latency.
When latecy is decreased, the negtive value added to vdiff is larger than the
positive value added to vdiff when latency is increased.
2 A>0 B<0
::C=A-B>0 and C>A, min(C,A)=A, latency increase and it is conservative.
3 A<0 B<0
::C=A-B>0, min(C,A)=A, latency increase but min(C,A)<0, I think if latency
increase means the value added to vdiff will be a positive value to increase
the chance to return 1. I would say it is max(C,A)=C
::C=A-B<0, min(C,A)=A, latency decrease and the real negtive value.
4 A<0,B>0
::C=A-B<0, min(C,A)=C, latency decrease and the real negtive value.
Is there a reason that the value when latency increase and latency decrease
be treated differently. Latency increase value is limited to se's latency_weight
but latency decrease value can extend to -sched_latency or treat them the same.
Penalty latency decrease and conserve latency increase.
There is any value that this latency_weight can be considered to be a average.
The delta value choose is ~%5 to 1024. %5*sched_latency=0.05*6ms=0.3ms.(no scale)
I do not think over that vdiff equation and others though.
