[RFC][PATCH v2 0/5] sched: User Managed Concurrency Groups

[Peter Zijlstra]

Latest version, many changes since last time, still under heavy discussion.

Seems to work with the test-case I have (below), but that still has a few gaps,
coverage wise.

Still haven't done the SMP wakeup thing, finally get the idea with
worker-timeouts but haven't yet implemented that.

Happy hacking..
