Currently, the Kyber elevator allocates its private data dynamically in ->init_sched and frees it in ->exit_sched. However, since ->init_sched is invoked during elevator switch after acquiring both ->freeze_lock and ->elevator_lock, it may trigger the lockdep splat [1] due to dependency on pcpu_alloc_mutex. To resolve this, move the elevator data allocation and deallocation logic from ->init_sched and ->exit_sched into the newly introduced ->alloc_sched_data and ->free_sched_data methods. These callbacks are invoked before acquiring ->freeze_lock and ->elevator_lock, ensuring that memory allocation happens safely without introducing additional locking dependencies. This change breaks the dependency chain involving pcpu_alloc_mutex and prevents the reported lockdep warning.
