Hi All,

 Here is v2 of the newidle patches I sent out yesterday:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/6/23/392

Changes since v1:

1) Added a new patch (1/3) for limiting balance operations to sd->span
2) Updated prologue to 2/3 according to comments from PeterZ.
3) Enhanced 2/3 by reducing the amount of unlock/lock cycles
4) Enhanced 2/3 by checking for need_resched() before taking the double-lock

Comments/feedback/bug-fixes welcome.

Regards,
-Greg
