Documentation: create new scheduler/ subdirectory

The top-level Documentation/ directory is unmanageably large, so we
should take any obvious opportunities to move stuff into subdirectories.
These sched-*.txt files seem an obvious easy case.

-Version 14 of schedstats includes support for sched_domains, which hit the
-mainline kernel in 2.6.20 although it is identical to the stats from version
-12 which was in the kernel from 2.6.13-2.6.19 (version 13 never saw a kernel
-release).  Some counters make more sense to be per-runqueue; other to be
-per-domain.  Note that domains (and their associated information) will only
-be pertinent and available on machines utilizing CONFIG_SMP.
-
-In version 14 of schedstat, there is at least one level of domain
-statistics for each cpu listed, and there may well be more than one
-domain.  Domains have no particular names in this implementation, but
-the highest numbered one typically arbitrates balancing across all the
-cpus on the machine, while domain0 is the most tightly focused domain,
-sometimes balancing only between pairs of cpus.  At this time, there
-are no architectures which need more than three domain levels. The first
-field in the domain stats is a bit map indicating which cpus are affected
-by that domain.
-
-These fields are counters, and only increment.  Programs which make use
-of these will need to start with a baseline observation and then calculate
-the change in the counters at each subsequent observation.  A perl script
-which does this for many of the fields is available at
-
-    http://eaglet.rain.com/rick/linux/schedstat/
-
-Note that any such script will necessarily be version-specific, as the main
-reason to change versions is changes in the output format.  For those wishing
-to write their own scripts, the fields are described here.
-
-CPU statistics
---------------
-cpu<N> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
-
-NOTE: In the sched_yield() statistics, the active queue is considered empty
-    if it has only one process in it, since obviously the process calling
-    sched_yield() is that process.
-
-First four fields are sched_yield() statistics:
-     1) # of times both the active and the expired queue were empty
-     2) # of times just the active queue was empty
-     3) # of times just the expired queue was empty
-     4) # of times sched_yield() was called
-
-Next three are schedule() statistics:
-     5) # of times we switched to the expired queue and reused it
-     6) # of times schedule() was called
-     7) # of times schedule() left the processor idle
-
-Next two are try_to_wake_up() statistics:
-     8) # of times try_to_wake_up() was called
-     9) # of times try_to_wake_up() was called to wake up the local cpu
-
-Next three are statistics describing scheduling latency:
-    10) sum of all time spent running by tasks on this processor (in jiffies)
-    11) sum of all time spent waiting to run by tasks on this processor (in
-        jiffies)
-    12) # of timeslices run on this cpu
-
-
-Domain statistics
------------------
-One of these is produced per domain for each cpu described. (Note that if
-CONFIG_SMP is not defined, *no* domains are utilized and these lines
-will not appear in the output.)
-
-domain<N> <cpumask> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36
-
-The first field is a bit mask indicating what cpus this domain operates over.
-
-The next 24 are a variety of load_balance() statistics in grouped into types
-of idleness (idle, busy, and newly idle):
-
-     1) # of times in this domain load_balance() was called when the
-        cpu was idle
-     2) # of times in this domain load_balance() checked but found
-        the load did not require balancing when the cpu was idle
-     3) # of times in this domain load_balance() tried to move one or
-        more tasks and failed, when the cpu was idle
-     4) sum of imbalances discovered (if any) with each call to
-        load_balance() in this domain when the cpu was idle
-     5) # of times in this domain pull_task() was called when the cpu
-        was idle
-     6) # of times in this domain pull_task() was called even though
-        the target task was cache-hot when idle
-     7) # of times in this domain load_balance() was called but did
-        not find a busier queue while the cpu was idle
-     8) # of times in this domain a busier queue was found while the
-        cpu was idle but no busier group was found
-
-     9) # of times in this domain load_balance() was called when the
-        cpu was busy
-    10) # of times in this domain load_balance() checked but found the
-        load did not require balancing when busy
-    11) # of times in this domain load_balance() tried to move one or
-        more tasks and failed, when the cpu was busy
-    12) sum of imbalances discovered (if any) with each call to
-        load_balance() in this domain when the cpu was busy
-    13) # of times in this domain pull_task() was called when busy
-    14) # of times in this domain pull_task() was called even though the
-        target task was cache-hot when busy
-    15) # of times in this domain load_balance() was called but did not
-        find a busier queue while the cpu was busy
-    16) # of times in this domain a busier queue was found while the cpu
-        was busy but no busier group was found
-
-    17) # of times in this domain load_balance() was called when the
-        cpu was just becoming idle
-    18) # of times in this domain load_balance() checked but found the
-        load did not require balancing when the cpu was just becoming idle
-    19) # of times in this domain load_balance() tried to move one or more
-        tasks and failed, when the cpu was just becoming idle
-    20) sum of imbalances discovered (if any) with each call to
-        load_balance() in this domain when the cpu was just becoming idle
-    21) # of times in this domain pull_task() was called when newly idle
-    22) # of times in this domain pull_task() was called even though the
-        target task was cache-hot when just becoming idle
-    23) # of times in this domain load_balance() was called but did not
-        find a busier queue while the cpu was just becoming idle
-    24) # of times in this domain a busier queue was found while the cpu
-        was just becoming idle but no busier group was found
-
-   Next three are active_load_balance() statistics:
-    25) # of times active_load_balance() was called
-    26) # of times active_load_balance() tried to move a task and failed
-    27) # of times active_load_balance() successfully moved a task
-
-   Next three are sched_balance_exec() statistics:
-    28) sbe_cnt is not used
-    29) sbe_balanced is not used
-    30) sbe_pushed is not used
-
-   Next three are sched_balance_fork() statistics:
-    31) sbf_cnt is not used
-    32) sbf_balanced is not used
-    33) sbf_pushed is not used
-
-   Next three are try_to_wake_up() statistics:
-    34) # of times in this domain try_to_wake_up() awoke a task that
-        last ran on a different cpu in this domain
-    35) # of times in this domain try_to_wake_up() moved a task to the
-        waking cpu because it was cache-cold on its own cpu anyway
-    36) # of times in this domain try_to_wake_up() started passive balancing

-/proc/<pid>/schedstat
-----------------
-schedstats also adds a new /proc/<pid/schedstat file to include some of
-the same information on a per-process level.  There are three fields in
-this file correlating for that process to:
-     1) time spent on the cpu
-     2) time spent waiting on a runqueue
-     3) # of timeslices run on this cpu
-
-A program could be easily written to make use of these extra fields to
-report on how well a particular process or set of processes is faring
-under the scheduler's policies.  A simple version of such a program is
-available at
-    http://eaglet.rain.com/rick/linux/schedstat/v12/latency.c
