Subject: CVE-2024-57891: sched_ext: Fix invalid irq restore in scx_ops_bypass()

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

sched_ext: Fix invalid irq restore in scx_ops_bypass()

While adding outer irqsave/restore locking, 0e7ffff1b811 ("scx: Fix raciness
in scx_ops_bypass()") forgot to convert an inner rq_unlock_irqrestore() to
rq_unlock() which could re-enable IRQ prematurely leading to the following
warning:

  raw_local_irq_restore() called with IRQs enabled

Drop the stray _irqrestore().

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
	https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/786362ce60d79967875f43e0ba55ad7a5376c133
