Subject: sched, dl: Convert switched_{from, to}_dl() / prio_changed_dl() to balance callbacks
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 9916e214998a4a363b152b637245e5c958067350 upstream.
Remove the direct {push,pull} balancing operations from
switched_{from,to}_dl() / prio_changed_dl() and use the balance
callback queue.
Again, err on the side of too many reschedules; since too few is a
hard bug while too many is just annoying.
