From ae154be1f34a674e6cbb43ccf6e442f56acd7a70 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2009 14:40:57 +0200 Subject: sched: Weaken SD_POWERSAVINGS_BALANCE One of the problems of power-saving balancing is that under certain scenarios it is too slow and allows tons of real work to pile up. Avoid this by ignoring the powersave stuff when there's real work to be done.
