[PATCH 2/2] sched/psi: iterate through cgroups directly

From: Kairui Song
Date: Wed Feb 08 2023 - 11:18:22 EST


From: Kairui Song <kasong@xxxxxxxxxxx>

psi_group->parent has the same hierarchy as the cgroup it's in.
So just iterate through cgroup instead.

By adjusting the iteration logic, save some space in psi_group
struct, and the performance is actually better. I see a measurable
performance gain using mmtests/perfpipe:

(AVG of 100 test, ops/sec, the higher the better)
KVM guest on a i7-9700:
psi=0 root cgroup 5 levels of cgroup
Before: 59221 55352 47821
After: 60100 56036 50884

KVM guest on a Ryzen 9 5900HX:
psi=0 root cgroup 5 levels of cgroup
Before: 144566 138919 128888
After: 145812 139580 133514
