revert ("sched: fair-group: SMP-nice for group scheduling")
Yanmin Zhang reported:
Comparing with 2.6.25, volanoMark has big regression with kernel 2.6.26-rc1.
It's about 50% on my 8-core stoakley, 16-core tigerton, and Itanium Montecito.
With bisect, I located the following patch:
| 18d95a2832c1392a2d63227a7a6d433cb9f2037e is first bad commit
| commit 18d95a2832c1392a2d63227a7a6d433cb9f2037e
| Author: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>

| sched: fair-group: SMP-nice for group scheduling
Revert it so that we get v2.6.25 behavior.
