ANDROID: sched: Highest energy aware balancing sched_domain level pointer
Add another member to the family of per-cpu sched_domain shortcut pointers. This one, sd_ea, points to the highest level at which energy model is provided. At this level and all levels below all sched_groups have energy model data attached. Partial energy model information is possible but restricted to providing energy model data for lower level sched_domains (sd_ea and below) and leaving load-balancing on levels above to non-energy-aware load-balancing. For example, it is possible to apply energy-aware scheduling within each socket on a multi-socket system and let normal scheduling handle load-balancing between sockets. cc: Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com> cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by:Morten Rasmussen <morten.rasmussen@arm.com> Change-Id: Ie9ff4dc97b4fda3292ce58c22f1032cd3085529c Signed-off-by:
