[PATCH 03/12] sched_ext: Use dynamic allocation for scx_sched

[Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>]

To prepare for supporting multiple schedulers, make scx_sched allocated
dynamically. scx_sched->kobj is now an embedded field and the kobj's
lifetime determines the lifetime of the containing scx_sched.

- Enable path is updated so that kobj init and addition are performed later.

- scx_sched freeing is initiated in scx_kobj_release() and also goes through
  an rcu_work so that scx_root can be accessed from an unsynchronized path -
  scx_disable().

- sched_ext_ops->priv is added and used to point to scx_sched instance
  created for the ops instance. This is used by bpf_scx_unreg() to determine
  the scx_sched instance to disable and put.

No behavior changes intended.

v2: Andrea reported kernel oops due to scx_bpf_unreg() trying to deref NULL
    scx_root after scheduler init failure. sched_ext_ops->priv added so that
    scx_bpf_unreg() can always find the scx_sched instance to unregister
    even if it failed early during init.
