Subject: [PATCHSET sched_ext/for-6.12] sched_ext: Implement scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq()

Once a task is put into a DSQ, the allowed operations are fairly limited.
Tasks in the built-in local and global DSQs are executed automatically and,
ignoring dequeue, there is only one way a task in a user DSQ can be
manipulated - scx_bpf_consume() moves the first task to the dispatching
local DSQ. This inflexibility sometimes gets in the way and is an area where
multiple feature requests have been made.

Implement scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq(), which can be called during
DSQ iteration and can move the task to any DSQ - local DSQs, global DSQ and
user DSQs. The kfuncs can be called from ops.dispatch() and any BPF context
which dosen't hold a rq lock including BPF timers and SYSCALL programs.

This patchset is on top of:

   sched_ext/for-6.12 bf934bed5e2f ("sched_ext: Add missing cfi stub for ops.tick")
 + two fix patches (http://lkml.kernel.org/r/ZtGkPKgoE5BeI7fN@slm.duckdns.org)

and is also available at:

 git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext.git scx-dispatch_from_dsq

This patchset contains the following patches:

 0001-sched_ext-Rename-scx_kfunc_set_sleepable-to-unlocked.patch
 0002-sched_ext-Refactor-consume_remote_task.patch
 0003-sched_ext-Make-find_dsq_for_dispatch-handle-SCX_DSQ_.patch
 0004-sched_ext-Make-dispatch_to_local_dsq-return-void.patch
 0005-sched_ext-Restructure-dispatch_to_local_dsq.patch
 0006-sched_ext-Reorder-args-for-consume_local-remote_task.patch
 0007-sched_ext-Move-sanity-check-and-dsq_mod_nr-into-task.patch
 0008-sched_ext-Move-consume_local_task-upward.patch
 0009-sched_ext-Replace-consume_local_task-with-move_local.patch
 0010-sched_ext-Implement-scx_bpf_dispatch-_vtime-_from_ds.patch
 0011-scx_qmap-Implement-highpri-boosting.patch

 0001-0009 are prep patches. The logic to bounce tasks across DSQs and CPUs
 is rather complicated due to synchronization. The prep patches do quite a
 bit of refactoring so that the helpers are more composable and can be used
 for the new kfuncs.

 0010 implements scx_bpf_dispatch[_vtime]_from_dsq().

 0011 adds demo usages to scx_qmap.

diffstat follows. Thanks.
