[PATCH] O(1) scheduler for 2.4.19-rc1

	ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rml/sched/ingo-O1/sched-O1-rml-2.4.19-rc1-1.patch

and mirrors.  Aside from the resync to 2.4.19-rc1, the following changes
are new since the last release (most all pulled from 2.5):

	- reintroduce sync wake ups
	- whitespace cleanup, trivial cleanups
	- remove frozen lock and introduce new arch-specific
	  switch_mm() logic
	- new rq_lock and rq_unlock methods
	- wake_up optimization
	- nr_uninterruptible optimization for count_active_tasks
	- merge the task CPU affinity system calls
	- sched_yield bugfix
	- minor fixes

Compiles on x86 UP and SMP.

Since Ingo recently posted 2.4-ac resyncs, I will refrain.

As I am the one doing these 2.4 patches, I will invariably be asked
whether I intend for the O(1) scheduler to be merged into 2.4.  The
answer is a strong NO.

Enjoy,

	Robert Love
