Subject: [PATCH 00/10] Fair scheduling deadline server fixes

Hello,
The deadline server [1] allows RT tasks to run on a system safely, while not
wasting CPU that RT tasks may not get on an idle system due to RT throttling.

Here are patches that are mostly fixes that we found while testing out the
deadline server [1] for ChromeOS.

The main fix is to core scheduling, but we found several other issues.

These patches are based on Daniel's preview branch for v6:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bristot/linux.git/?h=dl_server_v6

Daniel mentioned he is working on fixing the fair server interface issues [2].
These patches apply cleanly on his preview version.
