[PATCH] sched/deadline: add rq->clock update skip for dl task yield

From: Wanpeng Li
Date: Tue Mar 10 2015 - 00:38:25 EST


This patch add rq->clock update skip for dl task yield to tell
update_rq_clock() that we've just updated, so we don't do
microscopic update in schedule() and double the fastpath cost.
