[RESEND x2][PATCH v12 7/7] sched: Split scheduler and execution contexts

[John Stultz]

From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Let's define the "scheduling context" as all the scheduler state
in task_struct for the task chosen to run, which we'll call the
donor task, and the "execution context" as all state required to
actually run the task.

Currently both are intertwined in task_struct. We want to
logically split these such that we can use the scheduling
context of the donor task selected to be scheduled, but use
the execution context of a different task to actually be run.

To this purpose, introduce rq->donor field to point to the
task_struct chosen from the runqueue by the scheduler, and will
be used for scheduler state, and preserve rq->curr to indicate
the execution context of the task that will actually be run.

This patch introduces the donor field as a union with curr, so it
doesn't cause the contexts to be split yet, but adds the logic to
handle everything separately.

[add additional comments and update more sched_class code to use
 rq::proxy]
Signed-off-by: Connor O'Brien <connoro@xxxxxxxxxx>
[jstultz: Rebased and resolved minor collisions, reworked to use
 accessors, tweaked update_curr_common to use rq_proxy fixing rt
 scheduling issues]
Signed-off-by: John Stultz <jstultz@xxxxxxxxxx>
---
v2:
* Reworked to use accessors
* Fixed update_curr_common to use proxy instead of curr
v3:
* Tweaked wrapper names
* Swapped proxy for selected for clarity
v4:
* Minor variable name tweaks for readability
* Use a macro instead of a inline function and drop
  other helper functions as suggested by Peter.
* Remove verbose comments/questions to avoid review
  distractions, as suggested by Dietmar
v5:
* Add CONFIG_PROXY_EXEC option to this patch so the
  new logic can be tested with this change
* Minor fix to grab rq_selected when holding the rq lock
v7:
* Minor spelling fix and unused argument fixes suggested by
  Metin Kaya
* Switch to curr_selected for consistency, and minor rewording
  of commit message for clarity
* Rename variables selected instead of curr when we're using
  rq_selected()
* Reduce macros in CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC ifdef sections,
  as suggested by Metin Kaya
v8:
* Use rq->curr, not rq_selected with task_tick, as suggested by
  Valentin
* Minor rework to reorder this with CONFIG_SCHED_PROXY_EXEC patch
v10:
* Use rq_selected in push_rt_task & get_push_task
v11:
* Rework to use selected instead of curr in a few cases we were
  previously assigning curr = rq_selected() to minimize lines of
  change. Suggested by Metin.
v12:
* Big rename to use rq->donor instead of rq_selected(), as suggested
  by Peter.
