This one isn't a leftover of the scx_bpf_dispatch() rename.
scx_bpf_dsq_insert() doesn't call scx_dispatch_sched() and can't nest.
The comment is a typo for scx_bpf_sub_dispatch(), which a parent's
ops.dispatch() calls to trigger dispatching on a child scheduler, so the
calls nest as sub-scheds do. Please use scx_bpf_sub_dispatch() instead.

SCX_DEQ_SAVE was never defined, but these dequeues are flagged with
%SCX_DEQ_SCHED_CHANGE which ops.quiescent() does receive. Please replace
the reference instead of dropping it.

@name applies to sub-schedulers too and they show it the same way under
their own directories. Maybe something like "Exposed via the ops file in
the scheduler's sysfs directory, /sys/kernel/sched_ext/root/ops for the
root scheduler, while the BPF scheduler is enabled."

The first hunk no longer applies to sched_ext/for-7.3. Please base v2 on
that branch.

Thanks.
