Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] sched: improve efficiency of sched_fork()

Problem:
  sched_fork() has always called scheduler_tick() in some (unlikely)
  circumstances in order to update the current task in light of those
  circumstances.  It has always been the case that the work done by
  scheduler_tick() was more than was required to handle the problem in
  hand but no harm was done except for the waste of a few CPU cycles.

  However, the splitting of scheduler_tick() into two procedures in
  2.6.20-rc1 enables the wasted cycles to be saved as the new procedure
  task_running_tick() does all the work that is required to rectify the
  problem being handled.

Solution:
  Replace the call to scheduler_tick() in sched_fork() with a call to
  task_running_tick().
