Morten, what is the latest update in this area. I'm not sure I have followed 
your discussion with
Vincent on the subject.

Just to make it more clear.. There are two reverts now. Please look
at the latest tree/branches. Vincent has provided another fixup patch
after which he commented we no longer need Mortens fix.

I have reverted that too, for the moment to keep things same as the
last release. Can Morten test with latest patches from Vincent (from his
branch) ? And provide fixups again ?


Hi,

I tested Vincent's fix ("sched: pack small tasks: fix update packing
domain") for the buddy selection some weeks ago and confirmed that it
works. So my quick fixes are no longer necessary.

The issues around the reverted "sched: secure access to other CPU
statistics" have not yet been resolved. I don't think that we should
re-enable it until we are clear about what it is doing.

Morten
