    Subject[RFC][PATCH 6/7] sched,dl: Remove return value from pull_dl_task()
    In order to be able to use pull_dl_task() from a callback, we need to
    do away with the return value.

    Since the return value indicates if we should reschedule, do this
    inside the function. Since not all callers currently do this, this can
    increase the number of reschedules due rt balancing.

    Too many reschedules is not a correctness issues, too few are.
