Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Load-balancing improvements:

   - Improve NUMA balancing on AMD Zen systems for affine workloads.

   - Improve the handling of reduced-capacity CPUs in load-balancing.

   - Energy Model improvements: fix & refine all the energy fairness
     metrics (PELT), and remove the conservative threshold requiring 6%
     energy savings to migrate a task. Doing this improves power
     efficiency for most workloads, and also increases the reliability
     of energy-efficiency scheduling.

   - Optimize/tweak select_idle_cpu() to spend (much) less time
     searching for an idle CPU on overloaded systems. There's reports of
     several milliseconds spent there on large systems with large
     workloads ...

     [ Since the search logic changed, there might be behavioral side
       effects. ]

   - Improve NUMA imbalance behavior. On certain systems with spare
     capacity, initial placement of tasks is non-deterministic, and such
     an artificial placement imbalance can persist for a long time,
     hurting (and sometimes helping) performance.

     The fix is to make fork-time task placement consistent with runtime
     NUMA balancing placement.

     Note that some performance regressions were reported against this,
     caused by workloads that are not memory bandwith limited, which
     benefit from the artificial locality of the placement bug(s). Mel
     Gorman's conclusion, with which we concur, was that consistency is
     better than random workload benefits from non-deterministic bugs:

        "Given there is no crystal ball and it's a tradeoff, I think
         it's better to be consistent and use similar logic at both fork
         time and runtime even if it doesn't have universal benefit."

   - Improve core scheduling by fixing a bug in
     sched_core_update_cookie() that caused unnecessary forced idling.

   - Improve wakeup-balancing by allowing same-LLC wakeup of idle CPUs
     for newly woken tasks.

   - Fix a newidle balancing bug that introduced unnecessary wakeup
     latencies.

  ABI improvements/fixes:

   - Do not check capabilities and do not issue capability check denial
     messages when a scheduler syscall doesn't require privileges. (Such
     as increasing niceness.)

   - Add forced-idle accounting to cgroups too.

   - Fix/improve the RSEQ ABI to not just silently accept unknown flags.
     (No existing tooling is known to have learned to rely on the
     previous behavior.)

   - Depreciate the (unused) RSEQ_CS_FLAG_NO_RESTART_ON_* flags.

  Optimizations:

   - Optimize & simplify leaf_cfs_rq_list()

   - Micro-optimize set_nr_{and_not,if}_polling() via try_cmpxchg().

  Misc fixes & cleanups:

   - Fix the RSEQ self-tests on RISC-V and Glibc 2.35 systems.

   - Fix a full-NOHZ bug that can in some cases result in the tick not
     being re-enabled when the last SCHED_RT task is gone from a
     runqueue but there's still SCHED_OTHER tasks around.

   - Various PREEMPT_RT related fixes.

   - Misc cleanups & smaller fixes"
