Merge branch 'sched-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip into next

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main scheduling related changes in this cycle were:

   - various sched/numa updates, for better performance

   - tree wide cleanup of open coded nice levels

   - nohz fix related to rq->nr_running use

   - cpuidle changes and continued consolidation to improve the
     kernel/sched/idle.c high level idle scheduling logic.  As part of
     this effort I pulled cpuidle driver changes from Rafael as well.

   - standardized idle polling amongst architectures

   - continued work on preparing better power/energy aware scheduling

   - sched/rt updates

   - misc fixlets and cleanups"
