sched: Fix affine_move_task() self-concurrency

Consider:

sched_setaffinity(p, X); sched_setaffinity(p, Y);

Then the first will install p->migration_pending = &my_pending; and
issue stop_one_cpu_nowait(pending); and the second one will read
p->migration_pending and _also_ issue: stop_one_cpu_nowait(pending),
the _SAME_ @pending.

This causes stopper list corruption.

Add set_affinity_pending::stop_pending, to indicate if a stopper is in
progress.

sched: Fix migration_cpu_stop() requeueing

When affine_move_task(p) is called on a running task @p, which is not
otherwise already changing affinity, we'll first set
p->migration_pending and then do:

stop_one_cpu(cpu_of_rq(rq), migration_cpu_stop, &arg);

This then gets us to migration_cpu_stop() running on the CPU that was
previously running our victim task @p.

If we find that our task is no longer on that runqueue (this can
happen because of a concurrent migration due to load-balance etc.),
then we'll end up at the:

} else if (dest_cpu < 1 || pending) {

branch. Which we'll take because we set pending earlier. Here we first
check if the task @p has already satisfied the affinity constraints,
if so we bail early [A]. Otherwise we'll reissue migration_cpu_stop()
onto the CPU that is now hosting our task @p:

stop_one_cpu_nowait(cpu_of(rq), migration_cpu_stop,
&pending->arg, &pending->stop_work);

Except, we've never initialized pending->arg, which will be all 0s.

This then results in running migration_cpu_stop() on the next CPU with
arg->p == NULL, which gives the by now obvious result of fireworks.

The cure is to change affine_move_task() to always use pending->arg,
furthermore we can use the exact same pattern as the
SCA_MIGRATE_ENABLE case, since we'll block on the pending->done
completion anyway, no point in adding yet another completion in
stop_one_cpu().

This then gives a clear distinction between the two
migration_cpu_stop() use cases:

- sched_exec() / migrate_task_to() : arg->pending == NULL
- affine_move_task() : arg->pending != NULL;

And we can have it ignore p->migration_pending when !arg->pending. Any
stop work from sched_exec() / migrate_task_to() is in addition to stop
works from affine_move_task(), which will be sufficient to issue the
completion.

sched/features: Distinguish between NORMAL and DEADLINE hrtick

The HRTICK feature has traditionally been servicing configurations that
need precise preemptions point for NORMAL tasks. More recently, the
feature has been extended to also service DEADLINE tasks with stringent
runtime enforcement needs (e.g., runtime < 1ms with HZ=1000).

Enabling HRTICK sched feature currently enables the additional timer and
task tick for both classes, which might introduced undesired overhead
for no additional benefit if one needed it only for one of the cases.

Separate HRTICK sched feature in two (and leave the traditional case
name unmodified) so that it can be selectively enabled when needed.

With:

$ echo HRTICK > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features

the NORMAL/fair hrtick gets enabled.

With:

$ echo HRTICK_DL > /sys/kernel/debug/sched_features

the DEADLINE hrtick gets enabled.

sched/features: Fix hrtick reprogramming

Hung tasks and RCU stall cases were reported on systems which were not
100% busy. Investigation of such unexpected cases (no sign of potential
starvation caused by tasks hogging the system) pointed out that the
periodic sched tick timer wasn't serviced anymore after a certain point
and that caused all machinery that depends on it (timers, RCU, etc.) to
stop working as well. This issues was however only reproducible if
HRTICK was enabled.

Looking at core dumps it was found that the rbtree of the hrtimer base
used also for the hrtick was corrupted (i.e. next as seen from the base
root and actual leftmost obtained by traversing the tree are different).
Same base is also used for periodic tick hrtimer, which might get "lost"
if the rbtree gets corrupted.

Much alike what described in commit 1f71addd34f4c ("tick/sched: Do not
mess with an enqueued hrtimer") there is a race window between
hrtimer_set_expires() in hrtick_start and hrtimer_start_expires() in
__hrtick_restart() in which the former might be operating on an already
queued hrtick hrtimer, which might lead to corruption of the base.

Use hrtick_start() (which removes the timer before enqueuing it back) to
ensure hrtick hrtimer reprogramming is entirely guarded by the base
lock, so that no race conditions can occur.

sched: Fix CPU hotplug / tighten is_per_cpu_kthread()

Prior to commit 1cf12e08bc4d ("sched/hotplug: Consolidate task
migration on CPU unplug") we'd leave any task on the dying CPU and
break affinity and force them off at the very end.

This scheme had to change in order to enable migrate_disable(). One
cannot wait for migrate_disable() to complete while stuck in
stop_machine(). Furthermore, since we need at the very least: idle,
hotplug and stop threads at any point before stop_machine, we can't
break affinity and/or push those away.

Under the assumption that all per-cpu kthreads are sanely handled by
CPU hotplug, the new code no long breaks affinity or migrates any of
them (which then includes the critical ones above).

However, there's an important difference between per-cpu kthreads and
kthreads that happen to have a single CPU affinity which is lost. The
latter class very much relies on the forced affinity breaking and
migration semantics previously provided.

Use the new kthread_is_per_cpu() infrastructure to tighten
is_per_cpu_kthread() and fix the hot-unplug problems stemming from the
change.

tasks are expected to move themselves out of a out-going CPU. For most
tasks this will be done automagically via BALANCE_PUSH, but percpu kthreads
will have to cooperate and move themselves away one way or another.

Currently, some percpu kthreads (workqueues being a notable exemple) do not

sched: Prevent raising SCHED_SOFTIRQ when CPU is !active

SCHED_SOFTIRQ is raised to trigger periodic load balancing. When CPU is not
active, CPU should not participate in load balancing.

The scheduler uses nohz.idle_cpus_mask to keep track of the CPUs which can
do idle load balancing. When bringing a CPU up the CPU is added to the mask
when it reaches the active state, but on teardown the CPU stays in the mask
until it goes offline and invokes sched_cpu_dying().

When SCHED_SOFTIRQ is raised on a !active CPU, there might be a pending
softirq when stopping the tick which triggers a warning in NOHZ code. The
SCHED_SOFTIRQ can also be raised by the scheduler tick which has the same
issue.

Therefore remove the CPU from nohz.idle_cpus_mask when it is marked
inactive and also prevent the scheduler_tick() from raising SCHED_SOFTIRQ
after this point.

sched/core: Rename schedutil_cpu_util() and allow rest of the kernel to use it

There is nothing schedutil specific in schedutil_cpu_util(), rename it
to effective_cpu_util(). Also create and expose another wrapper
sched_cpu_util() which can be used by other parts of the kernel, like
thermal core (that will be done in a later commit).

sched/core: Allow try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled

The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function currently requires
that interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts
disabled from rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not
enabled as expected" diagnostic. This commit therefore updates
try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to use raw_spin_lock_irqsave() instead
of raw_spin_lock_irq(), thus allowing use from either context.
