A sched_ext scheduler may trigger __scx_exit() from a BPF timer
callback, where scx_root may not be safely dereferenced.
This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference as shown below (triggered by
scx_tickless):
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000330
...
CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.14.0-virtme #1 PREEMPT(full)

Fix this by checking for a valid scx_root and adding proper RCU
protection.

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.
