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 in this cycle were:

   - refcount conversions

   - Solve the rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list can of worms for real.

   - improve power-aware scheduling

   - add sysctl knob for Energy Aware Scheduling

   - documentation updates

   - misc other changes"
