Subject: [PATCH] sched: activate SCHED BATCH expired
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d425b274ba83ba4e7746a40446ec0ba3267de51f;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

[PATCH] sched: activate SCHED BATCH expired

To increase the strength of SCHED_BATCH as a scheduling hint we can
activate batch tasks on the expired array since by definition they are
latency insensitive tasks.
