Andrea Righi 25ddd8f92a sched_ext: Fix lock imbalance in dispatch_to_local_dsq()
[ Upstream commit 1626e5ef0b ]

While performing the rq locking dance in dispatch_to_local_dsq(), we may
trigger the following lock imbalance condition, in particular when
multiple tasks are rapidly changing CPU affinity (i.e., running a
`stress-ng --race-sched 0`):

[   13.413579] =====================================
[   13.413660] WARNING: bad unlock balance detected!
[   13.413729] 6.13.0-virtme #15 Not tainted
[   13.413792] -------------------------------------
[   13.413859] kworker/1:1/80 is trying to release lock (&rq->__lock) at:

[   13.417052]  __schedule+0x20d/0x1740

This happens because dispatch_to_local_dsq() is racing with
dispatch_dequeue() and, when the latter wins, we incorrectly assume that
the task has been moved to dst_rq.

Fix by properly tracking the currently locked rq.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
