[PATCH 03/10] sched,fair: redefine runnable_load_avg as the sum of task_h_load

From: Rik van Riel
Date: Fri Jun 28 2019 - 16:49:40 EST


The runnable_load magic is used to quickly propagate information about
runnable tasks up the hierarchy of runqueues. The runnable_load_avg is
mostly used for the load balancing code, which only examines the value at
the root cfs_rq.

Redefine the root cfs_rq runnable_load_avg to be the sum of task_h_loads
of the runnable tasks. This works because the hierarchical runnable_load of
a task is already equal to the task_se_h_load today. This provides enough
information to the load balancer.

The runnable_load_avg of the cgroup cfs_rqs does not appear to be
used for anything, so don't bother calculating those.

This removes one of the things that the code currently traverses the
cgroup hierarchy for, and getting rid of it brings us one step closer
to a flat runqueue for the CPU controller.
