Subject: [PATCH] sched: Fix boolean expression in move_tasks()
Date: Tue, 25 Apr 2006 09:47:11 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <444D637F.5040702@bigpond.net.au> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 647 bytes --]

Problem:

In the patch 
sched-avoid-unnecessarily-moving-highest-priority-task-move_tasks.patch
I got a the sense of a boolean expression wrong when assigning a value 
to skip_for_load.  The expression should have been negated before being 
assigned.

Solution:

Negate the expression and apply de Marcos rule to simplify it.  This 
patch is on top of 
sched-avoid-unnecessarily-moving-highest-priority-task-move_tasks.patch
