Merge tag 'sched-core-2020-12-14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull scheduler updates from Thomas Gleixner:

 - migrate_disable/enable() support which originates from the RT tree
   and is now a prerequisite for the new preemptible kmap_local() API
   which aims to replace kmap_atomic().

 - A fair amount of topology and NUMA related improvements

 - Improvements for the frequency invariant calculations

 - Enhanced robustness for the global CPU priority tracking and decision
   making

 - The usual small fixes and enhancements all over the place
