Srikar Dronamraju 3f9672baaa sched/numa: Reset scan rate whenever task moves across nodes
Currently task scan rate is reset when NUMA balancer migrates the task
to a different node. If NUMA balancer initiates a swap, reset is only
applicable to the task that initiates the swap. Similarly no scan rate
reset is done if the task is migrated across nodes by traditional load
balancer.

Instead move the scan reset to the migrate_task_rq. This ensures the
task moved out of its preferred node, either gets back to its preferred
node quickly or finds a new preferred node. Doing so, would be fair to
all tasks migrating across nodes.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
