Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] Small cleanup around sparse report

v2:
- Added __rcu annotations to variabbles in sched_reset_numa(),
  and casts for calls to kfree().
- Renamed idle_cpu_without() to idle_rq_without()
- Added sched/fair: Use rq in update_blocked_averages()

While checking spare's tool report, some RCU pointers appeared
to be not annotated. In the same effort, idle_cpu_without() and
update_blocked_averages() seemed to be subject to a small
optimizations.

Pierre Gondois (3):
  sched/topology: Annotate RCU pointers properly
  sched/fair: Use rq in idle_cpu_without()
  sched/fair: Use rq in update_blocked_averages()
