[RESEND x3][PATCH v12 0/7] Preparatory changes for Proxy Execution v12

[John Stultz]

Hey All,

  I wanted to re-send (again) v12 of the preparatory patches for
Proxy Execution - an approach for a generalized form of priority
inheritance. Here again, I’m only submitting the early /
preparatory changes for review, in the hope that we can move
these more straightforward patches along and then iteratively
move through the more interesting patches in the Proxy Execution
series.

There have been a few changes to the preparatory patches in v12:
* Peter suggested I switch from using “selected” to denote the
  task chosen to be scheduled, and instead use “donor”
* K Prateek Nayak and Peter both pointed out issues in the
  “Remove wakeups from under mutex::wait_lock” patch that needed
  some work to solve.

Thank you for all the detailed review and feedback there!

The only change in this resend is rebasing the series on top of
the current tip/sched/core branch and resolving some minor
collisions.

Usually I link to the full proxy-execution series here, but
while these preparatory changes rebased easily, I still have
some work to do on later changes in the full proxy-execution
series to adapt to recent delayed dequeuing and dl_server rework
that landed in 6.12-rc1. I'll post separately with those changes
once I've hammered all the details out.

Credit/Disclaimer:
—--------------------
As mentioned previously, this Proxy Execution series has a long
history: 

First described in a paper[1] by Watkins, Straub, Niehaus, then
from patches from Peter Zijlstra, extended with lots of work by
Juri Lelli, Valentin Schneider, and Connor O'Brien. (and thank
you to Steven Rostedt for providing additional details here!)

So again, many thanks to those above, as all the credit for this
 series really is due to them - while the mistakes are likely mine.

Thanks so much!
