The one mentioned in the cover letter describes the implementation I
posted:
http://disi.unitn.it/~abeni/reclaiming/rtlws14-grub.pdf

There is also a newer paper, that will be published at ACM SAC 2016
(so, it is not available yet), but is based on this technical report:
http://arxiv.org/abs/1512.01984
This second paper describes some more complex algorithms (easily
implementable over this patchset) that are able to guarantee hard
schedulability for SCHED_DEADLINE tasks with reclaiming on SMP.
