My pleasure. Infact, I'm trying to write patches around what Subhra posted
for reducing wakeup scans https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/8/30/829 and few ideas
from Peter's patch https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/5/30/632. Aim here is to
reduce scans for lower latency_tolerance tasks and will post out soon which
uses this feature.

Thanks. Will add it.
