sched/cache: Keep nr_pref_llc_running in the runnable domain, to fix LLC mis-scheduling buggrafted
alb_break_llc() decides whether to break LLC preference during active load balance. It does so by testing that every runnable fair task on the source rq prefers its LLC: env->src_rq->nr_pref_llc_running == env->src_rq->cfs.h_nr_runnable But the two counters cover different sets. nr_pref_llc_running is updated in account_llc_enqueue()/account_llc_dequeue(), next to cfs_rq->nr_queued, so it follows queued tasks. h_nr_runnable is updated in set_delayed()/ clear_delayed() and drops delay-dequeued tasks. So under DELAY_DEQUEUE, a preferring task that goes to sleep stays counted in nr_pref_llc_running while h_nr_runnable falls. The equality then breaks, alb_break_llc() returns false, and active balance is free to pull a task off its preferred LLC. Active balance only moves runnable tasks, and this is the only LLC check it consults: once the stopper runs, LBF_ACTIVE_LB skips the per-task test in can_migrate_task(). The runnable set is the one we want. Fix it on the counter side. A task should be counted in nr_pref_llc_running exactly while it is both queued on its preferred LLC (pref_llc_queued) and runnable (!sched_delayed). Define that membership once in task_pref_llc_runnable(), and adjust the counter only through pref_llc_running_inc()/pref_llc_running_dec() from the four sites that change either input: account_llc_enqueue(), account_llc_dequeue(), set_delayed() and clear_delayed(). Gating every update on the same predicate keeps the delay, wake and dequeue paths from double-counting or underflowing; see the comments at those sites for the ordering. nr_llc_running and sd->llc_counts are not touched and stay on queued semantics.

+
+3. Wiring
+---------
+
+The cfag12864b LCD Series don't have official wiring.
+
+The common wiring is done to the parallel port as shown::

+4. Userspace Programming
+------------------------
+
+The cfag12864bfb describes a framebuffer device (/dev/fbX).
+
+It has a size of 1024 bytes = 1 Kbyte.
+Each bit represents one pixel. If the bit is high, the pixel will
+turn on. If the pixel is low, the pixel will turn off.
+
+You can use the framebuffer as a file: fopen, fwrite, fclose...
+Although the LCD won't get updated until the next refresh time arrives.
+
+Also, you can mmap the framebuffer: open & mmap, munmap & close...
+which is the best option for most uses.
+
+Check samples/auxdisplay/cfag12864b-example.c
+for a real working userspace complete program with usage examples.
