[PATCH] psi: Remove the redundant psi_task_tick

From: Chengming Zhou
Date: Sun Feb 07 2021 - 06:57:48 EST


From: zhouchengming <zhouchengming@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

When the current task in a cgroup is in_memstall, the corresponding psi_group
is in PSI_MEM_FULL state, so we can remove the redundant psi_task_tick
from scheduler_tick to save this periodic cost.
