From c18a17329b3389315e8a138d998b217077509c13 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Mon, 9 Jul 2007 18:51:59 +0200 Subject: sched: remove expired_starving() remove the expired_starving() heuristics from the core scheduler. CFS does not need it, and this did not really work well in practice anyway, due to the rq->nr_running multiplier to STARVATION_LIMIT.
