[PATCH 1/6] sched/fair.c: remove "power" from struct numa_stats

From: Nicolas Pitre
Date: Wed May 14 2014 - 17:01:52 EST


It is better not to think about compute capacity as being equivalent to
"CPU power". The upcoming "power aware" scheduler may create confusion
with the notion of energy consumption if "power" is used too liberally.

To make things explicit and not create more confusion with the existing
"capacity" member, let's rename things as follows:

power -> compute_capacity
capacity -> task_capacity

Note: none of those fields are actually used outside update_numa_stats().
