Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull scheduler changes from Ingo Molnar:
 "Major changes:

   - Reworked CPU capacity code, for better SMP load balancing on
     systems with assymetric CPUs. (Vincent Guittot, Morten Rasmussen)

   - Reworked RT task SMP balancing to be push based instead of pull
     based, to reduce latencies on large CPU count systems. (Steven
     Rostedt)

   - SCHED_DEADLINE support updates and fixes. (Juri Lelli)

   - SCHED_DEADLINE task migration support during CPU hotplug. (Wanpeng Li)

   - x86 mwait-idle optimizations and fixes. (Mike Galbraith, Len Brown)

   - sched/numa improvements. (Rik van Riel)

   - various cleanups"
