[PATCH RFC v2 2/4] sched: sched feature for cpu frequency selection

From: Michael Turquette
Date: Mon May 11 2015 - 22:14:48 EST


This patch introduces the SCHED_ENERGY_FREQ sched feature, which is
implemented using jump labels when SCHED_DEBUG is defined. It is
statically set to false when SCHED_DEBUG is not defined and thus
disabled by default.
