Subject: [PATCH 26/30] sched: handle preempt=voluntary under PREEMPT_AUTO
The default preemption policy for voluntary preemption under
PREEMPT_AUTO is to schedule eagerly for tasks of higher scheduling
class, and lazily for well-behaved, non-idle tasks.
This is the same policy as preempt=none, with an eager handling of
higher priority scheduling classes.
So, compare a SCHED_DEADLINE workload (stress-ng --cyclic) with a
background kernel load of 'stress-ng --mmap':
# stress-ng --mmap 0 &
# stress-ng --cyclic 1 --timeout 300
PREEMPT_AUTO, preempt=none

So, the latency improves significantly -- even at the 25th percentile
threshold.
This configuration also compares quite favourably to voluntary
preemption under PREEMPT_DYNAMIC.

stress-ng: info: [12252] successful run completed in 300.01s (5 mins, 0.01 secs)
And, as you would expect, we perform identically to preempt=full
with PREEMPT_DYNAMIC (ignoring the outliers at 99.99%.)
