The patch titled
     sched: move idle status calculation into rebalance_tick()
has been added to the -mm tree.  Its filename is
     sched-move-idle-status-calculation-into-rebalance_tick.patch

See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find
out what to do about this

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: sched: move idle status calculation into rebalance_tick()
From: Christoph Lameter <clameter@xxxxxxx>

Perform the idle state determination in rebalance_tick.

If we separate balancing from sched_tick then we also need to determine the
idle state in rebalance_tick.

V2->V3
	Remove useless idlle != 0 check. Checking nr_running seems
	to be sufficient. Thanks Suresh.
