Subject: [RFCv4 4/6] sched/core: sync task_group's with CPU's clamp groups
The util_{min,max} clamp values for a task group are usually updated from
a user-space process (slow-path) but they require a synchronization
with the scheduler's (fast-path) maintained clamp group reference couters.
Indeed, each time the clamp value of a task group is changed, the old
and new clamp groups have to be updated for each CPU containing a
RUNNABLE task belonging to this tasks group. Non RUNNABLE tasks are not
updated since they will be enqueued with the proper clamp group index at
their next activation.
To properly update clamp group's reference counter of runnable tasks we
use the same locking schema use by __set_cpus_allowed_ptr(). This might
lock the (previous) RQ of a !RUNNABLE task, but that's the price to pay
to safely serialize util_{min,max} updates with RQ's enqueues, dequeues
and migration operations.
