[tg_shares_up rewrite v2 09/11] sched: demand based update_cfs_load()

From: Paul Turner
Date: Wed Nov 10 2010 - 22:55:10 EST


When the system is busy dilation of rq->next_balance makes lb->update_shares()
insufficiently frequent for threads which don't sleep (no dequeue/enqueue
updates). Adjust for this by making demand based updates based on the
accumulation of execution time sufficient to wrap our averaging window.
