[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.0 187/262] sched/core: Use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() in move_queued_task()/task_rq_lock()

From: Andrea Parri <andrea.parri@amarulasolutions.com>

[ Upstream commit c546951d9c9300065bad253ecdf1ac59ce9d06c8 ]

move_queued_task() synchronizes with task_rq_lock() as follows:

move_queued_task() task_rq_lock()

[S] ->on_rq = MIGRATING [L] rq = task_rq()
WMB (__set_task_cpu()) ACQUIRE (rq->lock);
[S] ->cpu = new_cpu [L] ->on_rq

where "[L] rq = task_rq()" is ordered before "ACQUIRE (rq->lock)" by an
address dependency and, in turn, "ACQUIRE (rq->lock)" is ordered before
"[L] ->on_rq" by the ACQUIRE itself.

Use READ_ONCE() to load ->cpu in task_rq() (c.f., task_cpu()) to honor
this address dependency. Also, mark the accesses to ->cpu and ->on_rq
with READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to comply with the LKMM.
