Peter Zijlstra 218050855e sched: adaptive scheduler granularity ...

Instead of specifying the preemption granularity, specify the wanted
latency. By fixing the granlarity to a constany the wakeup latency
it a function of the number of running tasks on the rq.

Invert this relation.

sysctl_sched_granularity becomes a minimum for the dynamic granularity
computed from the new sysctl_sched_latency.

Then use this latency to do more intelligent granularity decisions: if
there are fewer tasks running then we can schedule coarser. This helps
performance while still always keeping the latency target.
