On a idle system, it is observed that an idle cpu wakes up many times just to service this work. It would be better if we can schedule it on a cpu which the scheduler believes to be the most appropriate one. This patch replaces normal workqueues with power efficient versions. This doesn't change existing behavior of code unless CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT is enabled. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
