-/*
- * Calculate the preemption granularity needed to schedule every
- * runnable task once per sysctl_sched_latency amount of time.
- * (down to a sensible low limit on granularity)
- *
- * For example, if there are 2 tasks running and latency is 10 msecs,
- * we switch tasks every 5 msecs. If we have 3 tasks running, we have
- * to switch tasks every 3.33 msecs to get a 10 msecs observed latency
- * for each task. We do finer and finer scheduling up to until we
- * reach the minimum granularity value.
- *
- * To achieve this we use the following dynamic-granularity rule:
- *
- * gran = lat/nr - lat/nr/nr
- *
- * This comes out of the following equations:
- *
- * kA1 + gran = kB1
- * kB2 + gran = kA2
- * kA2 = kA1
- * kB2 = kB1 - d + d/nr
- * lat = d * nr
- *
- * Where 'k' is key, 'A' is task A (waiting), 'B' is task B (running),
- * '1' is start of time, '2' is end of time, 'd' is delay between
- * 1 and 2 (during which task B was running), 'nr' is number of tasks
- * running, 'lat' is the the period of each task. ('lat' is the
- * sched_latency that we aim for.)
