Subject: [PATCH v23 2/9] sched: Fix modifying donor->blocked on without proper locking
Date: Thu, 30 Oct 2025 00:18:43 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251030001857.681432-3-jstultz@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251030001857.681432-1-jstultz@google.com>

Introduce an action enum in find_proxy_task() which allows
us to handle work needed to be done outside the mutex.wait_lock
and task.blocked_lock guard scopes.

This ensures proper locking when we clear the donor's blocked_on
pointer in proxy_deactivate(), and the switch statement will be
useful as we add more cases to handle later in this series.
