[ROM+Kernel]Energy Aware Scheduler for the Xperia XZ
What is Energy Aware Scheduler?(oversimplified):
Energy Aware Scheduler essentially replaces your standard HMP/Big.little functions and employing a much more advanced scheduler with Energy Aware Task placement, it also enables different parts of the linux kernel to communicate better for a much better task placement, migration and cpu idling.

Essentially, I have ported this function to the Xperia XZ. This projects accomplishes many firsts!!
-The first to get EAS working on the Xperia XZ
-The first to successfully port vox populi EAS powerhal to an OEM ROM
-One of the only closed source OEM ROMs to make use of proper EAS powerhal
IMPORTANT READ BEFORE TESTING
-DO NOT USE ANY KERNEL EXCEPT THE INCLUDED ONE!
-YOU SHOULD NOT CHANGE THE DEFAULT GOVERNOR, LEAVE IT AT SCHED/SCHEDUTIL
-PLEASE READ ALL POSTS!
-The kernel in the newest ROMs have been fixed
-Crashes are not often but can happen
-Crashes lead to a bootloop,(recovery steps in post 2)
-exfat is not working!
-For most devices, this will boot just fine.
BUGS/WEIRD QUIRKS
-Exfat SDcards will not be able to use this ROM/kernel
