On asymmetric CPU capacity systems load intensive tasks can end up on CPUs that don't suit their compute demand. In this scenarios 'misfit' tasks should be migrated to CPUs with higher compute capacity to ensure better throughput. group_misfit_task indicates this scenario, but tweaks to the load-balance code are needed to make the migrations happen. Misfit balancing only makes sense between a source group of lower per-CPU capacity and destination group of higher compute capacity. Otherwise, misfit balancing is ignored. group_misfit_task has lowest priority so any imbalance due to overload is dealt with first. The modifications are: 1. Only pick a group containing misfit tasks as the busiest group if the destination group has higher capacity and has spare capacity. 2. When the busiest group is a 'misfit' group, skip the usual average load and group capacity checks. 3. Set the imbalance for 'misfit' balancing sufficiently high for a task to be pulled ignoring average load. 4. Pick the CPU with the highest misfit load as the source CPU. 5. If the misfit task is alone on the source CPU, go for active balancing.
