[PATCH] sched: filter affine wakeups


)

From: Nick Piggin <nickpiggin@yahoo.com.au>

Track the last waker CPU, and only consider wakeup-balancing if there's a
match between current waker CPU and the previous waker CPU.  This ensures
that there is some correlation between two subsequent wakeup events before
we move the task.  Should help random-wakeup workloads on large SMP
systems, by reducing the migration attempts by a factor of nr_cpus.
