Subject[PATCH] sched: fair scheduler should not resched rt tasks

Using ftrace, I noticed latencies in real-time tasks where they were
needlessly calling schedule due to sched_fair sending out time slices.

This patch prevents a call to resched_task by the sched fair class if
the task it wants to reschedule is an rt task.
