From: Morten Rasmussen Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2016 19:32:40 +0000 (+0100) Subject: sched/fair: Correct unit of load_above_capacity X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cfa10334318d8212d007da8c771187643c9cef35;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git sched/fair: Correct unit of load_above_capacity In calculate_imbalance() load_above_capacity currently has the unit [capacity] while it is used as being [load/capacity]. Not only is it wrong it also makes it unlikely that load_above_capacity is ever used as the subsequent code picks the smaller of load_above_capacity and the avg_load This patch ensures that load_above_capacity has the right unit [load/capacity].
