    Subject[patch v4 09/18] sched: add sched_policies in kernel
    Date
    Current scheduler behavior is just consider the for larger performance
    of system. So it try to spread tasks on more cpu sockets and cpu cores

    To adding the consideration of power awareness, the patchset adds
    2 kinds of scheduler policy: powersaving and balance. They will use
    runnable load util in scheduler balancing. The current scheduling is taken
    as performance policy.

    performance: the current scheduling behaviour, try to spread tasks
    on more CPU sockets or cores. performance oriented.
    powersaving: will pack tasks into few sched group until all LCPU in the
    group is full, power oriented.
    balance : will pack tasks into few sched group until group_capacity
    numbers CPU is full, balance between performance and
    powersaving.

    The following patches will enable powersaving/balance scheduling in CFS.
