sched/fair: add tunable to force selection at cpu granularity
EAS assumes that clusters with smaller capacity cores are more
energy-efficient. This may not be true on non-big-little devices,
so EAS can make incorrect cluster selections when finding a CPU
to wake. The "sched_is_big_little" hint can be used to cause a
cpu-based selection instead of cluster-based selection.
This change incorporates the addition of the sync hint enable patch
EAS did not honour synchronous wakeup hints, a new sysctl is
created to ask EAS to use this information when selecting a CPU.
The control is called "sched_sync_hint_enable".
Also contains:
EAS: sched/fair: for SMP bias toward idle core with capacity
For SMP devices, on wakeup bias towards idle cores that have capacity
vs busy devices that need a higher OPP
eas: favor idle cpus for boosted tasks
