Start power save thread only after the partition information is read
  in order to avoid trying to interpret the SuspendExcParts configuration
  information before the partition information is available, which would
  result in a slurmctld abort.

Before it was showing it as TBD since pending steps and the extern step
have the same stepid.

Fix gang scheduling and license release logic if single node job killed on
    bad node. Notifying gang and releasing licences is normally done when
    the epilog completion happens, but if the node(s) assigned to a job are
    all down, that does not happen. This results in the licenses being
    reserved indefinitely and the gang scheduler being left with a bad
    (old) job pointer that can result in various failure modes

We will most likely redo this logic (as it appears to be duplicated) in
a following patch.

Don't generate an error when a batch job is submitted that must wait

This might be the cause of run away jobs.  I couldn't see how an end_time
could be 0, but if it was it would just exit and never set time_end to
anything.  At least if it happens now we can have an idea that it is
possible and we will have an idea this is the place it happens.

This will keep from referencing the task array that might not be set up
correctly in src/common/plugstack.c _spank_handle_init().

Prevent possible incorrect counting of GRES of a given type if a node has

Prevent backfill scheduler from starting a second "singleton" job if another
    one started during a backfill sleep.

Previous logic required listing each task of job array individually.
For example --dependency="afterany:123_4:123_5" can not be expressed
as --dependency="afterany:123_[4-5]".
