[PATCH] sched: change nr_uninterruptible to be signed

From: yalin wang
Date: Thu Nov 26 2015 - 23:10:50 EST


nr_uninterruptible will be negative during running,
this happened when dequeue a TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE task
from rq1 and then wake up the task and queue it to rq2,
then rq2->nr_uninterruptible-- will reuslt in negative value
sometimes.
