[ 079/218] sched: Add missing call to calc_load_exit_idle()
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Sep 28 2012 - 16:25:44 EST
3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Charles Wang <muming.wq@xxxxxxxxxx>
commit 749c8814f08f12baa4a9c2812a7c6ede7d69507d upstream.
Azat Khuzhin reported high loadavg in Linux v3.6
After checking the upstream scheduler code, I found Peter's commit:
5167e8d5417b sched/nohz: Rewrite and fix load-avg computation -- again
not fully applied, missing the call to calc_load_exit_idle().
After that idle exit in sampling window will always be calculated
to non-idle, and the load will be higher than normal.
This patch adds the missing call to calc_load_exit_idle().
