kernel26-alx/patches-2.6.17-r5/0007-2.6.17-sched-iso-4.5.patch

Add the SCHED_ISO policy (isochronous) which is a starvation free soft
realtime policy available to unprivileged users. The amount of cpu that
SCHED_ISO tasks will run as realtime is configurable by the tunable in

/proc/sys/kernel/iso_cpu

and is set to 80% (over 3 seconds) by default.
