FYI, that's the patch i applied:
--------------------------->
Subject: sched: optimize task_tick_rt() a bit
From: Dmitry Adamushko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Mitchell Erblich suggested a change to not requeue SCHED_RR
tasks if there's only a single task on the runqueue, by
checking for rq->nr_running == 1.
provide a more efficient implementation of that, to check that
particular RT priority-queue only.
[ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ]
Also first requeue the task then set need_resched - results
in slightly better machine-instruction ordering. Also clean
up the code a bit.
