Subject: [PATCH] sched/fair: ignore cache hotness for SMT migration
From:   Josh Don <joshdon@google.com>
To:     Ingo Molnar <mingo@redhat.com>,
        Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>,
        Juri Lelli <juri.lelli@redhat.com>,
        Vincent Guittot <vincent.guittot@linaro.org>
Cc:     Dietmar Eggemann <dietmar.eggemann@arm.com>,
        Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>,

        linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, Josh Don <joshdon@google.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

SMT siblings share caches, so cache hotness should be irrelevant for
cross-sibling migration.
