SubjectRe: [PATCH] sched/deadline: fix switching to -deadline
Hi all,

I have this patch in a local tree, together with other fixes / cleanups
I plan to submit in the next weeks...

Since I see that the patch has not been applied, I wonder if some
changes are needed before submitting it another time.
If anyone has requests for changes in the patch, let me know.



Thanks,
Luca
