[PATCH v2 2/3] sched/numa: Disable sched_numa_balancing on uma systems

From: Srikar Dronamraju
Date: Tue Aug 11 2015 - 07:05:16 EST


Commit 2a1ed24 ("sched/numa: Prefer NUMA hotness over cache hotness")
sets sched feature NUMA to true. However this can enable numa hinting
faults on a uma system.

This commit ensures that numa hinting faults occur only on a numa system
by setting/resetting sched_numa_balancing.

This commit
- Makes sched_numa_balancing common to CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG and
!CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG. Earlier it was only in !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG
- Checks for sched_numa_balancing instead of sched_feat(NUMA)
