[ Upstream commit 014ba44e8184e1acf93e0cbb7089ee847802f8f0 ] select_idle_sibling() has a special case for tasks woken up by a per-CPU kthread where the selected CPU is the previous one. For asymmetric CPU capacity systems, the assumption was that the wakee couldn't have a bigger utilization during task placement than it used to have during the last activation. That was not considering uclamp.min which can completely change between two task activations and as a consequence mandates the fitness criterion asym_fits_capacity(), even for the exit path described above.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
