Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
* 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (40 commits) sched/tracing: Add a new tracepoint for sleeptime sched: Disable scheduler warnings during oopses sched: Fix cgroup movement of waking process sched: Fix cgroup movement of newly created process sched: Fix cgroup movement of forking process sched: Remove cfs bandwidth period check in tg_set_cfs_period() sched: Fix load-balance lock-breaking sched: Replace all_pinned with a generic flags field sched: Only queue remote wakeups when crossing cache boundaries sched: Add missing rcu_dereference() around ->real_parent usage [S390] fix cputime overflow in uptime_proc_show [S390] cputime: add sparse checking and cleanup sched: Mark parent and real_parent as __rcu sched, nohz: Fix missing RCU read lock sched, nohz: Set the NOHZ_BALANCE_KICK flag for idle load balancer sched, nohz: Fix the idle cpu check in nohz_idle_balance sched: Use jump_labels for sched_feat sched/accounting: Fix parameter passing in task_group_account_field sched/accounting: Fix user/system tick double accounting sched/accounting: Re-use scheduler statistics for the root cgroup ... Fix up conflicts in - arch/ia64/include/asm/cputime.h, include/asm-generic/cputime.h usecs_to_cputime64() vs the sparse cleanups - kernel/sched/fair.c, kernel/time/tick-sched.c scheduler changes in multiple branches
