a patch from Henrik Austad did this:
>> Do not declare select_task_rq as part of sched_class when CONFIG_SMP is
>> not set.Peter observed:
> While a proper cleanup, could you do it by re-arranging the methods so
> as to not create an additional ifdef?Do not declare select_task_rq and some other methods as part of sched_class
when CONFIG_SMP is not set.Also gather those methods to avoid CONFIG_SMP mess.

David Miller reported that hrtick update overhead has tripled the
wakeup overhead on Sparc64.That is too much - disable the HRTICK feature for now by default,
until a faster implementation is found.Reported-by: David Miller

Vatsa rightly points out that having the runqueue weight in the vruntime
calculations can cause unfairness in the face of task joins/leaves.Suppose: dv = dt * rw / w
Then take 10 tasks t_n, each of similar weight. If the first will run 1
then its vruntime will increase by 10. Now, if the next 8 tasks leave after
having run their 1, then the last task will get a vruntime increase of 2
after having run 1.Which will leave us with 2 tasks of equal weight and equal runtime, of which
one will not be scheduled for 8/2=4 units of time.Ergo, we cannot do that and must use: dv = dt / w.
This means we cannot have a global vruntime based on effective priority, but
must instead go back to the vruntime per rq model we started out with.This patch was lightly tested by doing starting while loops on each nice level
and observing their execution time, and a simple group scenario of 1:2:3 pinned
to a single cpu.Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra

With use of ftrace Steven noticed that some RT tasks got rescheduled due
to sched_fair interaction.What happens is that we reprogram the hrtick from enqueue/dequeue_fair_task()
because that can change nr_running, and thus a current tasks ideal runtime.
However, its possible the current task isn't a fair_sched_class task, and thus
doesn't have a hrtick set to change.Fix this by wrapping those hrtick_start_fair() calls in a hrtick_update()
function, which will check for the right conditions.Reported-by: Steven Rostedt

I noticed that tg_shares_up() unconditionally takes rq-locks for all cpus
in the sched_domain. This hurts.We need the rq-locks whenever we change the weight of the per-cpu group sched
entities. To allevate this a little, only change the weight when the new
weight is at least shares_thresh away from the old value.This avoids the rq-lock for the top level entries, since those will never
be re-weighted, and fuzzes the lower level entries a little to gain performance
in semi-stable situations.Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra
