Subject: numa: add a sysctl for numa_balancing
X-Git-Tag: v3.14-rc1~108^2~174
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=54a43d54988a3731d644fdeb7a1d6f46b4ac64c7;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-stable.git

numa: add a sysctl for numa_balancing

Add a working sysctl to enable/disable automatic numa memory balancing
at runtime.

This allows us to track down performance problems with this feature and
is generally a good idea.

This was possible earlier through debugfs, but only with special
debugging options set.  Also fix the boot message.
