Andrea Righi 786f631460 sched/ext: Fix invalid task state transitions on class switch
commit ddf7233fca upstream.

When enabling a sched_ext scheduler, we may trigger invalid task state
transitions, resulting in warnings like the following (which can be
easily reproduced by running the hotplug selftest in a loop):

 sched_ext: Invalid task state transition 0 -> 3 for fish[770]
 WARNING: CPU: 18 PID: 787 at kernel/sched/ext.c:3862 scx_set_task_state+0x7c/0xc0
 ...
 RIP: 0010:scx_set_task_state+0x7c/0xc0
 ...
 Call Trace:
  <TASK>
  scx_enable_task+0x11f/0x2e0
  switching_to_scx+0x24/0x110

  __x64_sys_bpf+0x21/0x30
  do_syscall_64+0xbb/0x370
  entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f

This happens because we skip initialization for tasks that are already
dead (with their usage counter set to zero), but we don't exclude them
during the scheduling class transition phase.

Fix this by also skipping dead tasks during class swiching, preventing
invalid task state transitions.

Fixes: a8532fac7b ("sched_ext: TASK_DEAD tasks must be switched into SCX on ops_enable")

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.
