[RFC PATCH 01/11] sched: Simple helper functions forfind_busiest_group()

From: Gautham R Shenoy
Date: Wed Mar 25 2009 - 05:13:54 EST


Currently the load idx calculation code is in find_busiest_group(). Move that
to a static inline helper function.

Similary, to find the first cpu of a sched_group we use
cpumask_first(sched_group_cpus(group))
Use a helper to that. It improves readability in
some cases.
