Subject: [PATCH 1/4] workqueue: Use TASK_IDLE
Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2017 13:58:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170823121432.788461761@infradead.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20170823115843.662056844@infradead.org

[-- Attachment #1: peterz-wq-task_idle.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 860 bytes --]

Workqueues don't use signals, it (ab)uses TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE to avoid
increasing the loadavg numbers. We've 'recently' introduced TASK_IDLE
for this case:

  80ed87c8a9ca ("sched/wait: Introduce TASK_NOLOAD and TASK_IDLE")

use it.
