[PATCH 3/8] sched, numa, mm: Add credits for NUMA placement

[Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>]

[-- Attachment #1: 0003-sched-numa-mm-Add-credits-for-NUMA-placement.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2473 bytes --]

The NUMA placement code has been rewritten several times, but
the basic ideas took a lot of work to develop. The people who
put in the work deserve credit for it. Thanks Andrea & Peter :)

[ The Documentation/scheduler/numa-problem.txt file should
  probably be rewritten once we figure out the final details of
  what the NUMA code needs to do, and why. ]
