Subject: [GIT PULL] scheduler fixes


Linus,

Please pull the latest sched/urgent git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git sched-urgent-2023-10-08

   # HEAD: 9e0bc36ab07c550d791bf17feeb479f1dfc42d89 cpufreq: schedutil: Update next_freq when cpufreq_limits change

Misc fixes:

 - Two EEVDF fixes: one to fix sysctl_sched_base_slice propagation,
   and to fix an avg_vruntime() corner-case.

 - A cpufreq frequency scaling fix

 Thanks,

	Ingo
