Joel Fernandes (Google) c8a85394cf sched/core: Fix picking of tasks for core scheduling with DL server
* Use simple CFS pick_task for DL pick_task

  DL server's pick_task calls CFS's pick_next_task_fair(), this is wrong
  because core scheduling's pick_task only calls CFS's pick_task() for
  evaluation / checking of the CFS task (comparing across CPUs), not for
  actually affirmatively picking the next task. This causes RB tree
  corruption issues in CFS that were found by syzbot.

* Make pick_task_fair clear DL server

  A DL task pick might set ->dl_server, but it is possible the task will
  never run (say the other HT has a stop task). If the CFS task is picked
  in the future directly (say without DL server), ->dl_server will be
  set. So clear it in pick_task_fair().

This fixes the KASAN issue reported by syzbot in set_next_entity().

(DL refactoring suggestions by Vineeth Pillai).

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.
