Subject[PATCH] sched/stats: Keep legacy array expiration field to zero.
From
Date
 A patch (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/12/224) was sent previously to update scheduler stat documentation to address array expiration field's use. Then Ingo suggest that, we should also make sure that we're exporting a value of zero. So, this patch does those accordingly.
