Yet another significant bugfix for SMP balancing was just posted for the
staircase deadline cpu scheduler which improves behaviour dramatically on any
SMP machine.
Thanks to Willy Tarreau for noticing more bugs.
As requested was a version in the Makefile so this version of the patch
adds -sd046 to the kernel version.

Renicing X to -10, while not essential, may be desirable on the desktop.
Unlike the CFS scheduler which renices X without your intervention to
nice -19, the SD patches do not alter nice level on their own.
See the patch just posted called 'sched: implement staircase deadline
scheduler load weight fix' for details of the fixes.
Thanks to all testing and giving feedback.
Well I'm exhausted...
