[PATCH 4/7] sched/fair: don't include effective load of process in the old cpu load
From: Josef Bacik
Date: Fri Jul 14 2017 - 09:21:45 EST
From: Josef Bacik <jbacik@xxxxxx>
We have no idea how long ago the process went to sleep. It could have just gone
to sleep, in which case we would essentially be counting the load of the process
twice in the previous effective load. Since the history presumably already
exists in the previous cpu load don't bother adding it's effective load again.
