sched/core: Remove unnecessary initialization init_idle_bootup_task()

init_idle_bootup_task( ) is called in rest_init( ) to switch the scheduling class of the boot thread to the idle class. the function only sets: idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class; which has been set in init_idle() called by sched_init(): /* * The idle tasks have their own, simple scheduling class: */ idle->sched_class = &idle_sched_class; We've already set the boot thread to idle class in start_kernel()->sched_init()->init_idle() so it's unnecessary to set it again in start_kernel()->rest_init()->init_idle_bootup_task() Signed-off-by: Cheng Jian <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Xie XiuQi <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <[email protected]> Cc: <[email protected]> Cc: <[email protected]> Cc: Linus Torvalds <[email protected]> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <[email protected]>
