sched: adaptive scheduler granularity
Instead of specifying the preemption granularity, specify the wanted
latency. By fixing the granlarity to a constany the wakeup latency
it a function of the number of running tasks on the rq.
Invert this relation.
sysctl_sched_granularity becomes a minimum for the dynamic granularity
computed from the new sysctl_sched_latency.
Then use this latency to do more intelligent granularity decisions: if
there are fewer tasks running then we can schedule coarser. This helps
performance while still always keeping the latency target.
