Merge branch 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull scheduler fix from Ingo Molnar: "Fix an exec() related scalability/performance regression, which was caused by incorrectly calculating load and migrating tasks on exec() when they shouldn't be" * 'sched-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: sched/fair: Fix cpu_util_wake() for 'execl' type workloads
