[ANNOUNCE][RFC] PlugSched-3.0 meets CKRM-E17

[Peter Williams]

A patch of PlugSched-3.0 against a 2.6.10 kernel with 
ckrm-e17.2610.patch and cpu.ckrm-e17.v10.patch already applied is 
available for download from:

<http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cpuse/plugsched-3.0%2Bckrm-E17-for-2.6.10.patch?download>

and a patchset and series file are available in at gzipped tarball at:

<http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/cpuse/plugsched-3.0%2Bckrm-E17-for-2.6.10.patchset.tar.gz?download>

The model adopted in merging PlugSched with CKRM was to apply the CKRM 
mechanisms as an optional adjunct to each of the schedulers (ingosched, 
staircase, spa_no_frills and zaphod) which can be selected at boot time 
by adding "cpusched=<scheduler name>" to the boot command line.  If the 
CKRM scheduler is included in the build then it can be 
selected/deselected in the usual ways.

PlugSched's version number has been bumped to 3.0 as its interface has 
been modified to increase the ability to share code between schedulers 
as well as integrate with CKRM.

A stand alone version of PlugSched-3.0 will be available in a few days.
