Subject: Re: [PATCH] sched: Introduce task_struct::latency_sensi_flag.

Sure, my first thought is providing a way to have a
low-latency task if user does not want to enable 
napi threaded. Once it is enabled, which will affect
all system. I want to have a low-latency task while 
minimizing the impact on the system.

Thanks

Enable threaded NAPI, it will have the same effect.
