sched/fair: Tweak pick_next_entity()
Currently, pick_next_entity(...) has the following structure (simplified): [...] if (last_buddy_ok()) result = last_buddy; if (next_buddy_ok()) result = next_buddy; [...] The intended behavior is to prefer next buddy over last buddy; the current code somewhat obfuscates this, and also wastes cycles checking the last buddy when eventually the next buddy is picked up. So this patch refactors two 'ifs' above into [...] if (next_buddy_ok()) result = next_buddy; else if (last_buddy_ok()) result = last_buddy; [...] Signed-off-by: Peter Oskolkov <posk@google.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Reviewed-by: Vincent Guittot <vincent.guitttot@linaro.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200930173532.1069092-1-posk@google.com
