A quick run here gives:

IVB-EP (2*20*2):

perf stat --null --repeat 10 -- perf bench sched messaging -g 50 -l 5000

Before:				After:
5.484170711 ( +-  0.74% )	5.590001145 ( +-  0.45% )

Which is an almost 2% slowdown :/

I've yet to look at what happens.

I tested the patch-set on top of tip:

ff277d4250fe - sched/deadline: Fix comment in enqueue_task_dl()

on a 2 cluster IVB-EP (2 clusters * 10 cores * 2 HW threads) = 40 
logical cpus w/ (SMT, MC, NUMA sd's).

model name : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2690 v2 @ 3.00GHz

perf stat --null --repeat 10 -- perf bench sched messaging -g 50 -l 5000

Before:				After:
5.049361160 ( +- 1.26% )	5.014980654 ( +- 1.20% )

Even by running this test multiple times I never saw something like a 2% 
slowdown.

It's a vanilla ubuntu 15.04 system which might explain the slightly 
higher stddev.

We could optimize the changes we did in __update_load_avg() by only 
calculating the additional scaled values [scaled_delta_w, contrib, 
scaled_delta] in case the function is called w/ 'weight !=0 && running 
!=0'. This is also true for the initialization of scale_freq and scale_cpu.
