Subject[PATCH 3.14 047/130] sched,dl: Remove return value from pull_dl_task()
Date
3.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

commit 0ea60c2054fc3b0c3eb68ac4f6884f3ee78d9925 upstream.

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.
