[PATCH 15/16] arm: Set SD_BALANCE_WAKE flag for asymmetric capacity systems
From: Morten Rasmussen
Date: Mon May 23 2016 - 06:58:55 EST
Asymmetric capacity systems (e.g. ARM big.LITTLE) can not rely
exclusively on fast idle-based task placement at wake-up in all
scenarios. Enable SD_BALANCE_WAKE to have the option to do
load/utilization based wake-up task placement (existing tasks) if affine
wake-up fails.
