Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar: "The main changes are: - lockless wakeup support for futexes and IPC message queues (Davidlohr Bueso, Peter Zijlstra) - Replace spinlocks with atomics in thread_group_cputimer(), to improve scalability (Jason Low) - NUMA balancing improvements (Rik van Riel) - SCHED_DEADLINE improvements (Wanpeng Li) - clean up and reorganize preemption helpers (Frederic Weisbecker) - decouple page fault disabling machinery from the preemption counter, to improve debuggability and robustness (David Hildenbrand) - SCHED_DEADLINE documentation updates (Luca Abeni) - topology CPU masks cleanups (Bartosz Golaszewski) - /proc/sched_debug improvements (Srikar Dronamraju)" * 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (79 commits) sched/deadline: Remove needless parameter in dl_runtime_exceeded() sched: Remove superfluous resetting of the p->dl_throttled flag sched/deadline: Drop duplicate init_sched_dl_class() declaration sched/deadline: Reduce rq lock contention by eliminating locking of non-feasible target sched/deadline: Make init_sched_dl_class() __init sched/deadline: Optimize pull_dl_task() sched/preempt: Add static_key() to preempt_notifiers sched/preempt: Fix preempt notifiers documentation about hlist_del() within unsafe iteration sched/stop_machine: Fix deadlock between multiple stop_two_cpus() sched/debug: Add sum_sleep_runtime to /proc/<pid>/sched sched/debug: Replace vruntime with wait_sum in /proc/sched_debug sched/debug: Properly format runnable tasks in /proc/sched_debug sched/numa: Only consider less busy nodes as numa balancing destinations Revert 095bebf61a46 ("sched/numa: Do not move past the balance point if unbalanced") sched/fair: Prevent throttling in early pick_next_task_fair() preempt: Reorganize the notrace definitions a bit preempt: Use preempt_schedule_context() as the official tracing preemption point sched: Make preempt_schedule_context() function-tracing safe x86: Remove cpu_sibling_mask() and cpu_core_mask() x86: Replace cpu_**_mask() with topology_**_cpumask() ...
