[PATCH sched_ext/for-7.3-fixes 1/4] sched_ext: Rename sch to root_sch in dispatch_one()
From: Tejun Heo
Date: Sat Sep 05 2026 - 12:11:30 EST
dispatch_one() uses the root scheduler for everything it does, including the
two decisions to keep running @prev, which are wrong when @prev belongs to a
sub-scheduler. The function has to deal with @prev's scheduler too. Rename
the root's local from sch to root_sch for clarity and to make room for it.
No functional change.
