I think this is a bit too much to put on the prog stack.
Folks are working on increasing this limit and moving
the stack into "divided stack", so it won't be an issue eventually,
but let's find a way to reduce it.
It seems to me scx_dsq_node has a bunch of fields,
but if I'm reading the code correctly this patch is
only using cursor.list part of it ?

Another alternative is to use bpf_mem_alloc() like we do
in bpf_iter_css_task and others?

Are these two assignments really necessary?
Something inside nldsq_next_task() is using that?
