remove interactive credit
we could try this in -mm, but it obviously needs alot of testing first. Do you have any particular workload in mind where the fairness win due
to this revert would/should be significant?
Since I created this variable in the first place I can say with quite
some certainty that the size of the advantage is miniscule. Whereas
clearly the design introduces special case mistreatment of only one
type of task. It's an addition to the interactivity code I've often
looked at and regretted doing.
yeah, i know, it was the only piece of code from your earlier -Oint
scheduler-fixup series i almost didnt ack. But now it's in and testing
needs to cross at least one stable kernel boundary before it can be
taken out again. (unless a patch is an obvious or important fix.)
