sched: Change pick_next_task_rt from unlikely to likely
The if (unlikely(!rt_rq->rt_nr_running)) test in pick_next_task_rt() tests if there is another rt task ready to run. If so, then pick it. In most systems, only one RT task runs at a time most of the time. Running the branch unlikely annotator profiler on a system doing average work "running firefox, evolution, xchat, distcc builds, etc", it showed the following: correct incorrect % Function File Line ------- --------- - -------- ---- ---- 324344 135104992 99 _pick_next_task_rt sched_rt.c 1064 99% of the time the condition is true. When an RT task schedules out, it is unlikely that another RT task is waiting to run on that same run queue. Simply remove the unlikely() condition.
