[PATCH v3 06/10] sched/psi: remove NR_ONCPU task accounting

From: Chengming Zhou
Date: Wed Aug 24 2022 - 04:20:38 EST


From: Johannes Weiner <hannes@xxxxxxxxxxx>

We put all fields updated by the scheduler in the first cacheline of
struct psi_group_cpu for performance.

Since we want add another PSI_IRQ_FULL to track IRQ/SOFTIRQ pressure,
we need to reclaim space first. This patch remove NR_ONCPU task accounting
in struct psi_group_cpu, use one bit in state_mask to track instead.
