In xen/common/sched_credit.c there's a function named __runq_insert()
which takes two arguments: cpu and svc.

However, the cpu argument is redundant: you can get all the information
you need from svc.

Submit a (tested) patch which removes cpu as an argument to the function
but has the same functionality.

You can find a lot of practical advice about how to send patches with
git here:

http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Submitting_Xen_Project_Patches

I generally recommend using stg to actually manage your patch series:

http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Submitting_Xen_Patches_with_StGit

But be sure to read the first one as well, as it contains lots of extra
information about what makes a good patch, the Signed-off-by: line, and
so on.

Thanks,
 -George
