Subject: [PATCH] sched/fair: Fix wake_affine_llc() balancing rules
Patch-mainline: v4.14-rc1
Git-commit: a731ebe6f17bff9e7ca12ef227f9da4d5bdf8425
References: bsc#1061593
Chris Wilson reported that the SMT balance rules got the +1 on the
wrong side, resulting in a bias towards the current LLC; which the
load-balancer would then try and undo.
