sched: Add logic to zap balance callbacks if we pick again
With proxy-exec, a task is selected to run via pick_next_task(), and then if it is a mutex blocked task, we call find_proxy_task() to find a runnable owner. If the runnable owner is on another cpu, we will need to migrate the selected donor task away, after which we will pick_again can call pick_next_task() to choose something else. However, in the first call to pick_next_task(), we may have had a balance_callback setup by the class scheduler. After we pick again, its possible pick_next_task_fair() will be called which calls sched_balance_newidle() and sched_balance_rq(). This will throw a warning: [ 8.796467] rq->balance_callback && rq->balance_callback != &balance_push_callback [ 8.796467] WARNING: CPU: 32 PID: 458 at kernel/sched/sched.h:1750 sched_balance_rq+0xe92/0x1250 ...

Once the task is migrated away and we pick again, we haven't processed any balance callbacks, so rq->balance_callback is not in the same state as it was the first time pick_next_task was called. To handle this, add a zap_balance_callbacks() helper function which cleans up the balance callbacks without running them. This should be ok, as we are effectively undoing the state set in the first call to pick_next_task(), and when we pick again, the new callback can be configured for the donor task actually selected.
