Linus Torvalds 02baaa67d9 sched_ext: Changes for v6.19
- Improve recovery from misbehaving BPF schedulers. When a scheduler puts many
   tasks with varying affinity restrictions on a shared DSQ, CPUs scanning
   through tasks they cannot run can overwhelm the system, causing lockups.
   Bypass mode now uses per-CPU DSQs with a load balancer to avoid this, and
   hooks into the hardlockup detector to attempt recovery. Add scx_cpu0 example
   scheduler to demonstrate this scenario.
 
 - Add lockless peek operation for DSQs to reduce lock contention for schedulers
   that need to query queue state during load balancing.
 
 - Allow scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() to be called from anywhere in preparation for
   deprecating cpu_acquire/release() callbacks in favor of generic BPF hooks.
 
 - Prepare for hierarchical scheduler support: add scx_bpf_task_set_slice() and
   scx_bpf_task_set_dsq_vtime() kfuncs, make scx_bpf_dsq_insert*() return bool,
   and wrap kfunc args in structs for future aux__prog parameter.
 
 - Implement cgroup_set_idle() callback to notify BPF schedulers when a cgroup's
   idle state changes.
 
 - Fix migration tasks being incorrectly downgraded from stop_sched_class to
   rt_sched_class across sched_ext enable/disable. Applied late as the fix is
   low risk and the bug subtle but needs stable backporting.
 
 - Various fixes and cleanups including cgroup exit ordering, SCX_KICK_WAIT
   reliability, and backward compatibility improvements.

 - Improve recovery from misbehaving BPF schedulers.

   When a scheduler puts many tasks with varying affinity restrictions
   on a shared DSQ, CPUs scanning through tasks they cannot run can
   overwhelm the system, causing lockups.

   Bypass mode now uses per-CPU DSQs with a load balancer to avoid this,
   and hooks into the hardlockup detector to attempt recovery.

   Add scx_cpu0 example scheduler to demonstrate this scenario.

 - Add lockless peek operation for DSQs to reduce lock contention for
   schedulers that need to query queue state during load balancing.

 - Allow scx_bpf_reenqueue_local() to be called from anywhere in
   preparation for deprecating cpu_acquire/release() callbacks in favor
   of generic BPF hooks.

 - Prepare for hierarchical scheduler support: add
   scx_bpf_task_set_slice() and scx_bpf_task_set_dsq_vtime() kfuncs,
   make scx_bpf_dsq_insert*() return bool, and wrap kfunc args in
   structs for future aux__prog parameter.

 - Implement cgroup_set_idle() callback to notify BPF schedulers when a
   cgroup's idle state changes.

 - Fix migration tasks being incorrectly downgraded from
   stop_sched_class to rt_sched_class across sched_ext enable/disable.
   Applied late as the fix is low risk and the bug subtle but needs
