Linus,

# HEAD: 11e13696a08e838ba48c72404c2b3f41429b5b20 sched/completions/Documentation: Add recommendation for dynamic and ONSTACK completions

The main changes are:

- Migrate CPU-intense 'misfit' tasks on asymmetric capacity systems, to
better utilize (much) faster 'big core' CPUs.
(Morten Rasmussen, Valentin Schneider)

- Topology handling improvements, in particular when CPU capacity
changes and related load-balancing fixes/improvements (Morten Rasmussen)

- ... plus misc other improvements, fixes and updates.

Thanks,

Ingo
