Julien and Vineeth, here is by coresched tree updated with this patch for
when you are sending the next series:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jfern/linux.git (branch coresched)
There are some trivial fixups to the debug patch, due to this commit. So
pulling from the above branch may save you some time.
thanks,
- Joel
