This is from patches/sched-fast_decay.patch and I changed both the
patch and the changelog to reflect your changes.

This seems to have come from patches/sched-cfs_rq_blocked_load.patch, and I merged
it in there. With subsequent updates in 
patches/sched-wakeup_load.patch. I didn't find any changes to the Changelogs for either.

This hunk seems to have come from
patches/sched-swap_update_shares.patch, merged in there, no Changelog
changes afaict.


I've updated my queue (at the usual location:
http://programming.kicks-ass.net/sekrit/patches.tar.bz2), Paul please
verify I didn't miss anything.
