Linus Torvalds bf76f23aa1 Scheduler updates for v6.17:
Core scheduler changes:
 
  - Better tracking of maximum lag of tasks in presence of different
    slices duration, for better handling of lag in the fair
    scheduler. (Vincent Guittot)
 
  - Clean up and standardize #if/#else/#endif markers throughout
    the entire scheduler code base (Ingo Molnar)
 
  - Make SMP unconditional: build the SMP scheduler's
    data structures and logic on UP kernel too, even though
    they are not used, to simplify the scheduler and remove
    around 200 #ifdef/[#else]/#endif blocks from the
    scheduler. (Ingo Molnar)
 
  - Reorganize cgroup bandwidth control interface handling
    for better interfacing with sched_ext (Tejun Heo)
 
 Balancing:
 
  - Bump sd->max_newidle_lb_cost when newidle balance fails (Chris Mason)
  - Remove sched_domain_topology_level::flags to simplify the code (Prateek Nayak)
  - Simplify and clean up build_sched_topology() (Li Chen)
  - Optimize build_sched_topology() on large machines (Li Chen)
 
 Real-time scheduling:
 
  - Add initial version of proxy execution: a mechanism for mutex-owning
    tasks to inherit the scheduling context of higher priority waiters.
    Currently limited to a single runqueue and conditional on CONFIG_EXPERT,
    and other limitations. (John Stultz, Peter Zijlstra, Valentin Schneider)
 
  - Deadline scheduler (Juri Lelli):
 
    - Fix dl_servers initialization order (Juri Lelli)
    - Fix DL scheduler's root domain reinitialization logic (Juri Lelli)
    - Fix accounting bugs after global limits change (Juri Lelli)
    - Fix scalability regression by implementing less agressive dl_server handling
      (Peter Zijlstra)
 
 PSI:
 
  - Improve scalability by optimizing psi_group_change() cpu_clock() usage
    (Peter Zijlstra)
 
 Rust changes:
 
  - Make Task, CondVar and PollCondVar methods inline to avoid unnecessary
    function calls (Kunwu Chan, Panagiotis Foliadis)
 
  - Add might_sleep() support for Rust code: Rust's "#[track_caller]"
    mechanism is used so that Rust's might_sleep() doesn't need to be
    defined as a macro (Fujita Tomonori)
 
  - Introduce file_from_location() (Boqun Feng)
 
 Debugging & instrumentation:
 
  - Make clangd usable with scheduler source code files again (Peter Zijlstra)
 
  - tools: Add root_domains_dump.py which dumps root domains info (Juri Lelli)
 
  - tools: Add dl_bw_dump.py for printing bandwidth accounting info (Juri Lelli)
 
 Misc cleanups & fixes:
 
  - Remove play_idle() (Feng Lee)
 
  - Fix check_preemption_disabled() (Sebastian Andrzej Siewior)
 
  - Do not call __put_task_struct() on RT if pi_blocked_on is set
    (Luis Claudio R. Goncalves)
 
  - Correct the comment in place_entity() (wang wei)
