Subject: [PATCH 6.18.y 1/3] sched: Add assert_balance_callbacks_empty helper
Date: Wed,  9 Sep 2026 05:26:29 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260909092631.1296773-1-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2026090310-surround-endnote-4269@gregkh>

From: John Stultz <jstultz@google.com>

[ Upstream commit f9530b3183358bbf945f7c20d4a6e2048061ec50 ]

With proxy-exec utilizing pick-again logic, we can end up having
balance callbacks set by the preivous pick_next_task() call left
on the list.

So pull the warning out into a helper function, and make sure we
check it when we pick again.
