SubjectRe: [PATCH 9/7] sched,numa: remove task_h_load from task_numa_compare

Which gets me the below; which is has a wrong changelog.

task_h_load() already computes the load as seen from the root group.
effective_load() just does a better (and more expensive) job of
computing the task movement implications of a move.

So the total effect of this patch shouldn't be very big; regular load
balancing also only uses task_h_load(), see move_tasks().

Now, we don't run with preemption disabled, don't run as often, etc..,
so maybe we can indeed use the more expensive variant just fine, but
does it really matter?

Subject: sched,numa: use effective_load to balance NUMA loads
From: Rik van Riel <riel@redhat.com>

When CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is enabled, the load that a task places
on a CPU is determined by the group the task is in. This is conveniently
calculated for us by effective_load(), which task_numa_compare should
use.

The active groups on the source and destination CPU can be different,
so the calculation needs to be done separately for each CPU.
