From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit ec618b84f6e15281cc3660664d34cd0dd2f2579e ] schedule() ttwu() deactivate_task(); if (p->on_rq && ...) // false atomic_dec(&task_rq(p)->nr_iowait); if (prev->in_iowait) atomic_inc(&rq->nr_iowait); Allows nr_iowait to be decremented before it gets incremented, resulting in more dodgy IO-wait numbers than usual. Note that because we can now do ttwu_queue_wakelist() before p->on_cpu==0, we lose the natural ordering and have to further delay the decrement.
