From: Shawn Bohrer <sbohrer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any objections, please let us know. =============== commit 6bfa687c19b7ab8adee03f0d43c197c2945dd869 upstream. In 76854c7e8f3f4172fef091e78d88b3b751463ac6 ("sched: Use rt.nr_cpus_allowed to recover select_task_rq() cycles") an optimization was added to select_task_rq_rt() that immediately returns when p->nr_cpus_allowed == 1 at the beginning of the function. This makes the latter p->nr_cpus_allowed > 1 check redundant, which can now be removed.
