Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

   - refcount conversions

   - Solve the rq->leaf_cfs_rq_list can of worms for real.

   - improve power-aware scheduling

   - add sysctl knob for Energy Aware Scheduling

   - documentation updates

   - misc other changes"

==============================================================
sched_energy_aware:
Enables/disables Energy Aware Scheduling (EAS). EAS starts
automatically on platforms where it can run (that is,
platforms with asymmetric CPU topologies and having an Energy
Model available). If your platform happens to meet the
requirements for EAS but you do not want to use it, change
this value to 0.

sched_schedstats:
Enables/disables scheduler statistics. Enabling this feature
