Subject: [PATCH 2/3] sched, sched_ext: Open code for_balance_class_range()

For flexibility, sched_ext allows the BPF scheduler to select the CPU to
execute a task on at dispatch time so that e.g. a queue can be shared across
multiple CPUs. To enable this, the dispatch path is executed from balance()
so that a dispatched task can be hot-migrated to its target CPU. This means
that sched_ext needs its balance() method invoked before every
pick_next_task() even when the CPU is waking up from SCHED_IDLE.

for_balance_class_range() defined in kernel/sched/ext.h implements this
selective iteration promotion. However, the indirection obfuscates more than
helps. Open code the iteration promotion in put_prev_task_balance() and
remove for_balance_class_range().

No functional changes intended.
