[PATCH v3 3/6] sched/rt: Optimize cpupri_find on non-heterogenous systems

From: Qais Yousef
Date: Mon Mar 02 2020 - 08:27:44 EST


By introducing a new cpupri_find_fitness() function that takes the
fitness_fn as an argument and only called when asym_system static key is
enabled.

cpupri_find() is now a wrapper function that calls cpupri_find_fitness()
passing NULL as a fitness_fn, hence disabling the logic that handles
fitness by default.
