[PATCH v2 0/3] Disable sched_numa_balancing on uma systems

[PATCH v2 0/3] Disable sched_numa_balancing on uma systems

[Srikar Dronamraju]

With recent commit 2a1ed24 ("sched/numa: Prefer NUMA hotness over cache
hotness") sets sched feature NUMA to true. This can enable numa hinting
faults on a uma system.

This patchset ensures that numa hinting faults occur only on a numa system
by setting/resetting sched_numa_balancing.

This patchset
- Renames numabalancing_enabled to sched_numa_balancing
- Makes sched_numa_balancing common to CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG and
  !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG. Earlier it was only in !CONFIG_SCHED_DEBUG
- Checks for sched_numa_balancing instead of sched_feat(NUMA)
- Removes NUMA sched feature

[PATCH v2 4/4] sched/numa: Convert sched_numa_balancing to a static_branch

It seems that the sched/core branch of Peterz's queue doesn't include 
this commit. So your patch should be good.

sched/numa: Convert sched_numa_balancing to a static_branch

Variable sched_numa_balancing toggles numa_balancing feature. Hence
moving from a simple read mostly variable to a more apt static_branch.
