[PATCH 2/2] sched/fair: Avoid a second scan of target in select_idle_cpu

From: Mel Gorman
Date: Wed Aug 04 2021 - 07:59:34 EST


When select_idle_cpu starts scanning for an idle CPU, it starts with
a target CPU that has already been checked by select_idle_sibling.
This patch starts with the next CPU instead.
