Linus,

please pull the latest sched/urgent branch from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git sched-urgent-202=
4-03-24

up to:  a26979377bf3: sched/doc: Update documentation for base_slice_ns and C=
ONFIG_HZ relation

A single update for the documentation of the base_slice_ns tunable to
clarify that any value which is less than the tick slice has no effect
because the scheduler tick is not guaranteed to happen within the set time
slice.

Thanks,

	tglx
