[PATCH v3 08/10] sched/fair: use utilization to select misfit task
From: Vincent Guittot
Date: Thu Sep 19 2019 - 03:34:18 EST
utilization is used to detect a misfit task but the load is then used to
select the task on the CPU which can lead to select a small task with
high weight instead of the task that triggered the misfit migration.
