[PATCH 1/2] sched: remove extraneous load manipulations

From: Gregory Haskins
Date: Thu Jul 03 2008 - 17:41:50 EST


commit 62fb185130e4d420f71a30ff59d8b16b74ef5d2b reverted some patches
in the scheduler, but it looks like it may have left a few redundant
calls to inc_load/dec_load remain in set_user_nice (since the
dequeue_task/enqueue_task take care of the load. This could result
in the load values being off since the load may change while dequeued.
