sched/cpupri: Remove pri_to_cpu[CPUPRI_IDLE]
pri_to_cpu[CPUPRI_IDLE=0] isn't used since cpupri_set(..., newpri) is never called with newpri = MAX_PRIO (140). Current mapping: p->rt_priority p->prio newpri cpupri -1 -1 (CPUPRI_INVALID) 140 0 (CPUPRI_IDLE) 100 1 (CPUPRI_NORMAL) 1 98 98 3 ... 49 50 50 51 50 49 49 52 ... 99 0 0 101 Even when cpupri was introduced with commit 6e0534f2 ("sched: use a 2-d bitmap for searching lowest-pri CPU") in v2.6.27, only (1) CPUPRI_INVALID (-1), (2) MAX_RT_PRIO (100), (3) an RT prio (RT1..RT99) were used as newprio in cpupri_set(..., newpri) -> convert_prio(newpri). MAX_RT_PRIO is used only in dec_rt_tasks() -> dec_rt_prio() -> dec_rt_prio_smp() -> cpupri_set() in case of !rt_rq->rt_nr_running. I.e. it stands for a non-rt task, including the IDLE task. Commit 57785df5 ("sched: Fix task priority bug") removed code in v2.6.33 which did set the priority of the IDLE task to MAX_PRIO. Although this happened after the introduction of cpupri, it didn't have an effect on the values used for cpupri_set(..., newpri). Remove CPUPRI_IDLE and adapt the cpupri implementation accordingly. This will save a useless for loop with an atomic_read in cpupri_find_fitness() calling __cpupri_find().
