sched_ext: Add basic building blocks for nested sub-scheduler dispatching
This is an early-stage partial implementation that demonstrates the core
building blocks for nested sub-scheduler dispatching. While significant
work remains in the enqueue path and other areas, this patch establishes
the fundamental mechanisms needed for hierarchical scheduler operation.
The key building blocks introduced include:
- Private stack support for ops.dispatch() to prevent stack overflow when
walking down nested schedulers during dispatch operations
- scx_bpf_sub_dispatch() kfunc that allows parent schedulers to trigger
dispatch operations on their direct child schedulers
- Proper parent-child relationship validation to ensure dispatch requests
are only made to legitimate child schedulers
- Updated scx_dispatch_sched() to handle both nested and non-nested
invocations with appropriate kf_mask handling
The qmap scheduler is updated to demonstrate the functionality by calling
scx_bpf_sub_dispatch() on registered child schedulers when it has no
tasks in its own queues.
