From: Greg KH
Date: Fri Mar 12 2010 - 19:42:51 EST


2.6.32-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

----------------
From: Vaidyanathan Srinivasan <svaidy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 28f5318167adf23b16c844b9c2253f355cb21796 upstream.

Fix for sched_mc_powersavigs for pre-Nehalem platforms.
Child sched domain should clear SD_PREFER_SIBLING if parent will have
SD_POWERSAVINGS_BALANCE because they are contradicting.

Sets the flags correctly based on sched_mc_power_savings.
