[PATCH v2 sched_ext/for-7.1-fixes] sched_ext: Mark scx_sched_hash insecure_elasticity

From: Tejun Heo

Date: Sun Apr 19 2026 - 11:33:52 EST


scx_sched_hash is inserted into under scx_sched_lock (raw_spinlock_irq)
in scx_link_sched(). rhashtable's sync grow path calls get_random_u32()
and does a GFP_ATOMIC allocation; both acquire regular spinlocks, which
is unsafe under raw_spinlock_t. Set insecure_elasticity to skip the
sync grow.

v2:
- Dropped dsq_hash changes. Insertion is not under raw_spin_lock.

- Switched from no_sync_grow flag to insecure_elasticity.
