sched: Replace use of entity_key()
"entity_key()" is only used in "__enqueue_entity()" and its only function is to subtract a tasks vruntime by its groups minvruntime. Before this patch a rbtree enqueue-decision is done by comparing two tasks in the style: "if (entity_key(cfs_rq, se) < entity_key(cfs_rq, entry))" which would be "if (se->vruntime-cfs_rq->min_vruntime < entry->vruntime-cfs_rq->min_vruntime)" or (if reducing cfs_rq->min_vruntime out) "if (se->vruntime < entry->vruntime)" which is "if (entity_before(se, entry))" So we do not need "entity_key()". If "entity_before()" is inline we will also save one subtraction (only one, because "entity_key(cfs_rq, se)" was cached in "key") Signed-off-by: Stephan Baerwolf <stephan.baerwolf@tu-ilmenau.de> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/n/tip-ns12mnd2h5w8rb9agd8hnsfk@git.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
