Re: [PATCH v7 0/8] CPUs capacity information for heterogeneous systems

[Juri Lelli <juri.lelli-5wv7dgnIgG8@public.gmane.org>]

Hi,

this is a ping for people interested in this series. Patches 2,4,7-8
still needs ACKs.

I know it's only been a week since I posted v7, but this series would
pair nicely with asym cpu capacity support bits already sitting in
tip/sched/core. I also know that it might be already late for 4.9 merge
window; nevertheless, still hoping we can make it.

Thanks!

Best,

- Juri
