[PATCH sched_ext/for-7.2] sched_ext: Fix ops_cid layout assert

[Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org>]

ca1d48a86fab ("sched_ext: Use offsetofend on both sides of the ops_cid
layout assert") replaced sizeof() with offsetofend() to dodge 32-bit
PPC trailing padding, but the resulting check is tautological: with
CID_OFFSET_MATCH(priv, priv) already enforcing offsetof(priv) equality
and @priv being the same type in both structs, the two offsetofends
are equal by construction. The original protection - catching a stray
field added past @priv in sched_ext_ops_cid - is gone.

Anchor on a zero-size __end[] marker appended after @priv. Its offset
sits flush after @priv regardless of trailing struct padding; if a
field is inserted past @priv, __end shifts and the assert fires.

Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260508215211.0C03AC2BCB0@smtp.kernel.org/
