I do not wish to merge these up until the big-iron guys can say that they
suit their requirements, with a reasonable expectation that we will not
need to churn this code later in the 2.6 series.

So. If you have been testing, please speak up. If you have not been
testing, please do so.


I sucked sched-* out of mm, added sched-ppc64bits (attached) and am
having problems with the following threaded test case. NUMA is enabled.



Hi Anton,
You need to be setting cpu_power for each of the CPU groups.
