[PATCH 4.9 61/72] Revert "sched/core: Optimize SCHED_SMT"

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This reverts commit 1b568f0aabf280555125bc7cefc08321ff0ebaba.

For the 4.9 kernel tree, this patch causes scheduler regressions.  It is
fixed in newer kernels with a large number of individual patches, the
sum of which is too big for the stable kernel tree.

Ingo recommended just reverting the single patch for this tree, as it's
much simpler.
