Here's the updated patch.
Oh, and Gregory, please email me at my [email protected] account. It
has better filters ;-)
This series is at:
http://rostedt.homelinux.com/rt/rt-balance-patches-v6.tar.bz2
===
This patch removes several cpumask operations by keeping track
of the first of the CPUS that is of the lowest priority. When
the search for the lowest priority runqueue is completed, all
the bits up to the first CPU with the lowest priority runqueue
is cleared.
