[PATCH v2 0/5] sched: Add on_rq states and remove several double rq locks

[Kirill Tkhai <tkhai@yandex.ru>]

This series aims to get rid of some places where locks of two RQs are held
at the same time.

Patch [1/5] is a preparation/cleanup. It replaces old (.on_rq == 1) with new
(.on_rq == ONRQ_QUEUED) everywhere. No functional changes.

Patch [2/5] is main in the series. It introduces new state: ONRQ_MIGRATING
and teaches scheduler to understand it (we need a little changes predominantly
in try_to_wake_up()). This will be used in the following way:

        (we are changing task's rq)

        raw_spin_lock(&src_rq->lock);
        dequeue_task(src_rq, p, 0);
        p->on_rq = ONRQ_MIGRATING;
        set_task_cpu(p, dst_cpu);
        raw_spin_unlock(&src_rq->lock);

        raw_spin_lock(&dst_rq->lock);
        p->on_rq = ONRQ_QUEUED;
        enqueue_task(dst_rq, p, 0);
        raw_spin_unlock(&dst_rq->lock);

Patches [3-5/5] remove double locks and use new ONRQ_MIGRATING state.
They allow unlocked using of 3-4 function, which looks safe for me.

The series doesn't add any overhead, and it shouldn't worsen performance,
I think. It improves granularity, and it's possible to imagine situations,
which will be happier without double rq lock.

v2: Changes in [2/5] and [5/5].
