Subject: [PATCH v5 3/3] softirq: defer softirq processing to ksoftirqd if CPU
 is busy with RT

From: Pavankumar Kondeti <pkondeti@...eaurora.org>

Defer the softirq processing to ksoftirqd if a RT task is
running or queued on the current CPU. This complements the RT
task placement algorithm which tries to find a CPU that is not
currently busy with softirqs.

Currently NET_TX, NET_RX, BLOCK and IRQ_POLL softirqs are only
deferred as they can potentially run for long time.

Additionally, this patch stubs out ksoftirqd_running() logic,
in the CONFIG_RT_SOFTIRQ_AWARE_SCHED case, as deferring
potentially long-running softirqs will cause the logic to not
process shorter-running softirqs immediately. By stubbing it out
the potentially long running softirqs are deferred, but the
shorter running ones can still run immediately.

This patch includes folded-in fixes by:
