'is'? It gives 'it' vibes more of 'is' vibes... (:>)

Again. A typo. An extra blank. I'll normally make a joke but,
I'm tired. ;-)

Also,

Scene:

On the reworked version of feec(), we have this check:

  if (p->on_rq && !p->se.sched_delayed && cpu == prev_cpu)

A little after and outside of this check, we call update_best_cpu().
Now, if this check can get true, on this state:

prev's min_slice cannot be bigger than p's task_slice.

So when target is prev the first check is always false,
and when min->cpu is prev, the second check is always true.

Also also, I have a really important issue abot the patch
series that can finish the whole patch series and end the world
itself...

The issue is...

I need to sleep.
