95c354fe9f spinlock: lockbreak cleanup
The break_lock data structure and code for spinlocks is quite nasty.
Not only does it double the size of a spinlock but it changes locking to
a potentially less optimal trylock.

Put all of that under CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK, and introduce a
__raw_spin_is_contended that uses the lock data itself to determine whether
there are waiters on the lock, to be used if CONFIG_GENERIC_LOCKBREAK is
not set.

Rename need_lockbreak to spin_needbreak, make it use spin_is_contended to
decouple it from the spinlock implementation, and make it typesafe (rwlocks
do not have any need_lockbreak sites -- why do they even get bloated up
with that break_lock then?).

6f505b1642 sched: rt group scheduling
Extend group scheduling to also cover the realtime classes. It uses the time
limiting introduced by the previous patch to allow multiple realtime groups.

The hard time limit is required to keep behaviour deterministic.

The algorithms used make the realtime scheduler O(tg), linear scaling wrt the
number of task groups. This is the worst case behaviour I can't seem to get out
of, the avg. case of the algorithms can be improved, I focused on correctness
and worst case.

Very simple time limit on the realtime scheduling classes.
Allow the rq's realtime class to consume sched_rt_ratio of every
sched_rt_period slice. If the class exceeds this quota the fair class
will preempt the realtime class.

8f4d37ec07 sched: high-res preemption tick
Use HR-timers (when available) to deliver an accurate preemption tick.

The regular scheduler tick that runs at 1/HZ can be too coarse when nice
level are used. The fairness system will still keep the cpu utilisation 'fair'
by then delaying the task that got an excessive amount of CPU time but try to
minimize this by delivering preemption points spot-on.

The average frequency of this extra interrupt is sched_latency / nr_latency.
Which need not be higher than 1/HZ, its just that the distribution within the
sched_latency period is important.

cb46984504 sched: RT-balance, add new methods to sched_class
Dmitry Adamushko found that the current implementation of the RT
balancing code left out changes to the sched_setscheduler and
rt_mutex_setprio.

This patch addresses this issue by adding methods to the schedule classes
to handle being switched out of (switched_from) and being switched into
(switched_to) a sched_class. Also a method for changing of priorities
is also added (prio_changed).

This patch also removes some duplicate logic between rt_mutex_setprio and
sched_setscheduler.

To make the main sched.c code more agnostic to the schedule classes.
Instead of having specific hooks in the schedule code for the RT class
balancing. They are replaced with a pre_schedule, post_schedule
and task_wake_up methods. These methods may be used by any of the classes
but currently, only the sched_rt class implements them.

637f50851b sched: only balance our RT tasks within our domain
We move the rt-overload data as the first global to per-domain
reclassification.  This limits the scope of overload related cache-line
bouncing to stay with a specified partition instead of affecting all
cpus in the system.

Finally, we limit the scope of find_lowest_cpu searches to the domain
instead of the entire system.  Note that we would always respect domain
boundaries even without this patch, but we first would scan potentially
all cpus before whittling the list down.  Now we can avoid looking at
RQs that are out of scope, again reducing cache-line hits.

Note: In some cases, task->cpus_allowed will effectively reduce our search
to within our domain.  However, I believe there are cases where the
cpus_allowed mask may be all ones and therefore we err on the side of
caution.  If it can be optimized later, so be it.

57d885fea0 sched: add sched-domain roots
We add the notion of a root-domain which will be used later to rescope
global variables to per-domain variables.  Each exclusive cpuset
essentially defines an island domain by fully partitioning the member cpus
from any other cpuset.  However, we currently still maintain some
policy/state as global variables which transcend all cpusets.  Consider,
for instance, rt-overload state.

Whenever a new exclusive cpuset is created, we also create a new
root-domain object and move each cpu member to the root-domain's span.
By default the system creates a single root-domain with all cpus as
members (mimicking the global state we have today).

We add some plumbing for storing class specific data in our root-domain.
Whenever a RQ is switching root-domains (because of repartitioning) we
give each sched_class the opportunity to remove any state from its old
domain and add state to the new one.  This logic doesn't have any clients
yet but it will later in the series.
