# HEAD: 53d3bc773eaa7ab1cf63585e76af7ee869d5e709 Revert "sched/fair: Fix fairness issue on migration"

This is a revert to fix an interactivity problem. The proper fixes for the
problems that the reverted commit exposed are now in sched/core (consisting of 3
patches), but were too risky for v4.6 and will arrive in the v4.7 merge window.

Thanks,

Ingo
