Subject: [PATCH] sched: Pass correct scheduling policy to __setscheduler_class
The function __setscheduler_class determines the appropriate
sched_class based on the scheduling policy and priority. Previously,
the function used the task's pointer to retrieve the scheduling policy,
which could lead to incorrect decisions if the task's struct had an
outdated policy. This behaviour where the task pointer may reference an
outdated policy when __setscheduler_class is called, was introduced in
commit 98442f0ccd82 ("sched: Fix delayed_dequeue vs switched_from_fair()")
To resolve this, corresponding scheduling policy is passed directly
to __setscheduler_class instead of relying on the task pointer's cached
policy. This ensures that the correct policy is always used when
determining the scheduling class.
-------------------------------------------------------
Before Patch:
-------------------------------------------------------
```
sched_ext # ./runner -t init_enable_count
===== START =====
TEST: init_enable_count
DESCRIPTION: Verify we do the correct amount of counting of init,
enable, etc callbacks.
OUTPUT:
ERR: init_enable_count.c:132
Expected skel->bss->enable_cnt == num_children (3 == 5)
not ok 1 init_enable_count #
===== END =====
=============================
RESULTS:
PASSED: 0
SKIPPED: 0
FAILED: 1
```
-------------------------------------------------------
After Patch:
-------------------------------------------------------
```
sched-ext # ./runner -t init_enable_count
===== START =====

DESCRIPTION: Verify we do the correct amount of counting of init,
enable, etc callbacks.
OUTPUT:

===== END =====
=============================
RESULTS:
