[RFC PATCH v3 07/16] sched: Allow put_prev_task() to drop rq->lock

[Vineeth Remanan Pillai]

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently the pick_next_task() loop is convoluted and ugly because of
how it can drop the rq->lock and needs to restart the picking.

For the RT/Deadline classes, it is put_prev_task() where we do
balancing, and we could do this before the picking loop. Make this
possible.
