Subject[Resend patch v8 08/13] sched/tg: remove blocked_load_avg in balance
Date
blocked_load_avg sometime is too heavy and far bigger than runnable load
avg, that make balance make wrong decision. So remove it.

Changlong tested this patch, found ltp cgroup stress testing get better

duration=764 duration=754 duration=751
duration=763 duration=755 duration=751

And Jason also tested this patchset on his 8 sockets machine:

When using a 3.10-rc2 tip kernel with patches 1-8, there was about a 40%
improvement in performance of the workload compared to when using the
vanilla 3.10-rc2 tip kernel with no patches. When using a 3.10-rc2 tip
kernel with just patches 1-7, the performance improvement of the
workload over the vanilla 3.10-rc2 tip kernel was about 25%.
