sched: Add a few SYNC hint knobs to play with
Currently we use overlap to weaken the SYNC hint, but allow it to set the hint as well. echo NO_SYNC_WAKEUP > /debug/sched_features echo SYNC_MORE > /debug/sched_features preserves pipe-test behaviour without using the WF_SYNC hint. Worth playing with on more workloads... Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> LKML-Reference: <new-submission> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
