Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

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

   - More -rt motivated separation of CONFIG_PREEMPT and
     CONFIG_PREEMPTION.

   - Add more low level scheduling topology sanity checks and warnings
     to filter out nonsensical topologies that break scheduling.

   - Extend uclamp constraints to influence wakeup CPU placement

   - Make the RT scheduler more aware of asymmetric topologies and CPU
     capacities, via uclamp metrics, if CONFIG_UCLAMP_TASK=y

   - Make idle CPU selection more consistent

   - Various fixes, smaller cleanups, updates and enhancements - please
     see the git log for details"
