Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - power-aware scheduling improvements (Patrick Bellasi)

 - NUMA balancing improvements (Mel Gorman)

 - vCPU scheduling fixes (Rohit Jain)

* 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
  sched/fair: Update util_est before updating schedutil
  sched/cpufreq: Modify aggregate utilization to always include blocked FAIR utilization
  sched/deadline/Documentation: Add overrun signal and GRUB-PA documentation
  sched/core: Distinguish between idle_cpu() calls based on desired effect, introduce available_idle_cpu()
  sched/wait: Include <linux/wait.h> in <linux/swait.h>
  sched/numa: Stagger NUMA balancing scan periods for new threads
  sched/core: Don't schedule threads on pre-empted vCPUs
  sched/fair: Avoid calling sync_entity_load_avg() unnecessarily
  sched/fair: Rearrange select_task_rq_fair() to optimize it

+2.3 Energy-aware scheduling
+------------------------
+
+ When cpufreq's schedutil governor is selected, SCHED_DEADLINE implements the
+ GRUB-PA [19] algorithm, reducing the CPU operating frequency to the minimum
+ value that still allows to meet the deadlines. This behavior is currently
+ implemented only for ARM architectures.
+
+ A particular care must be taken in case the time needed for changing frequency
+ is of the same order of magnitude of the reservation period. In such cases,
+ setting a fixed CPU frequency results in a lower amount of deadline misses.
