Effectively reverts 738d2be430.
As demonstrated by Eric, we really need to call __set_task_cpu()
early in the fork() path to properly initialize the various task
state -- specifically the cgroup state through set_task_rq().
[ we could probably fix this by explicitly calling
__set_task_cpu() from sched_fork(), but lets try that for the
next cycle and simply revert to the old behaviour for now. ]

In practice, it is harmless to voluntarily sleep in a
rcu_read_lock() section if we are running under preempt rcu, but
it is illegal if we build a kernel running non-preemptable rcu.
Currently, might_sleep() doesn't notice sleepable operations
under rcu_read_lock() sections if we are running under
preemptable rcu because preempt_count() is left untouched after
rcu_read_lock() in this case. But we want developers who test
their changes under such config to notice the "sleeping while
atomic" issues.
So we add rcu_read_lock_nesting to prempt_count() in
might_sleep() checks.

In order to remove the cfs_rq dependency from set_task_cpu() we
need to ensure the task is cfs_rq invariant for all callsites.
The simple approach is to substract cfs_rq->min_vruntime from
se->vruntime on dequeue, and add cfs_rq->min_vruntime on
enqueue.
However, this has the downside of breaking FAIR_SLEEPERS since
we loose the old vruntime as we only maintain the relative
position.
To solve this, we observe that we only migrate runnable tasks,
we do this using deactivate_task(.sleep=0) and
activate_task(.wakeup=0), therefore we can restrain the
min_vruntime invariance to that state.
The only other case is wakeup balancing, since we want to
maintain the old vruntime we cannot make it relative on dequeue,
but since we don't migrate inactive tasks, we can do so right
before we activate it again.
This is where we need the new pre-wakeup hook, we need to call
this while still holding the old rq->lock. We could fold it into
->select_task_rq(), but since that has multiple callsites and
would obfuscate the locking requirements, that seems like a
fudge.
This leaves the fork() case, simply make sure that ->task_fork()
leaves the ->vruntime in a relative state.
This covers all cases where set_task_cpu() gets called, and
ensures it sees a relative vruntime.

In order to clean up the set_task_cpu() rq dependencies we need
to ensure it is never called on blocked tasks because such usage
does not pair with consistent rq->lock usage.
This puts the migration burden on ttwu().
Furthermore we need to close a race against changing
->cpus_allowed, since select_task_rq() runs with only preemption
disabled.
For sched_fork() this is safe because the child isn't in the
tasklist yet, for wakeup we fix this by synchronizing
set_cpus_allowed_ptr() against TASK_WAKING, which leaves
sched_exec to be a problem
This also closes a hole in (6ad4c1888 sched: Fix balance vs
hotplug race) where ->select_task_rq() doesn't validate the
result against the sched_domain/root_domain.

Since (e761b77: cpu hotplug, sched: Introduce cpu_active_map and redo
sched domain managment) we have cpu_active_mask which is suppose to rule
scheduler migration and load-balancing, except it never (fully) did.
The particular problem being solved here is a crash in try_to_wake_up()
where select_task_rq() ends up selecting an offline cpu because
select_task_rq_fair() trusts the sched_domain tree to reflect the
current state of affairs, similarly select_task_rq_rt() trusts the
root_domain.
However, the sched_domains are updated from CPU_DEAD, which is after the
cpu is taken offline and after stop_machine is done. Therefore it can
race perfectly well with code assuming the domains are right.
Cure this by building the domains from cpu_active_mask on
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE.

- {u,s}time in task_struct are increased every time when the thread
is interrupted by a tick (timer interrupt).
- When a thread exits, its {u,s}time are added to signal->{u,s}time,
after adjusted by task_times().
- When all threads in a thread_group exits, accumulated {u,s}time
(and also c{u,s}time) in signal struct are added to c{u,s}time
in signal struct of the group's parent.
So {u,s}time in task struct are "raw" tick count, while
{u,s}time and c{u,s}time in signal struct are "adjusted" values.
And accounted values are used by:
- task_times(), to get cputime of a thread:
This function returns adjusted values that originates from raw
{u,s}time and scaled by sum_exec_runtime that accounted by CFS.
- thread_group_cputime(), to get cputime of a thread group:
This function returns sum of all {u,s}time of living threads in
the group, plus {u,s}time in the signal struct that is sum of
adjusted cputimes of all exited threads belonged to the group.
The problem is the return value of thread_group_cputime(),
because it is mixed sum of "raw" value and "adjusted" value:
group's {u,s}time = foreach(thread){{u,s}time} + exited({u,s}time)
This misbehavior can break {u,s}time monotonicity.
Assume that if there is a thread that have raw values greater
than adjusted values (e.g. interrupted by 1000Hz ticks 50 times
but only runs 45ms) and if it exits, cputime will decrease (e.g.
-5ms).
To fix this, we could do:
group's {u,s}time = foreach(t){task_times(t)} + exited({u,s}time)
But task_times() contains hard divisions, so applying it for
every thread should be avoided.
This patch fixes the above problem in the following way:
- Modify thread's exit (= __exit_signal()) not to use task_times().
It means {u,s}time in signal struct accumulates raw values instead
of adjusted values. As the result it makes thread_group_cputime()
to return pure sum of "raw" values.
- Introduce a new function thread_group_times(*task, *utime, *stime)
that converts "raw" values of thread_group_cputime() to "adjusted"
values, in same calculation procedure as task_times().
- Modify group's exit (= wait_task_zombie()) to use this introduced
thread_group_times(). It make c{u,s}time in signal struct to
have adjusted values like before this patch.
- Replace some thread_group_cputime() by thread_group_times().
This replacements are only applied where conveys the "adjusted"
cputime to users, and where already uses task_times() near by it.
(i.e. sys_times(), getrusage(), and /proc/<PID>/stat.)
This patch have a positive side effect:
- Before this patch, if a group contains many short-life threads
(e.g. runs 0.9ms and not interrupted by ticks), the group's
cputime could be invisible since thread's cputime was accumulated
after adjusted: imagine adjustment function as adj(ticks, runtime),
{adj(0, 0.9) + adj(0, 0.9) + ....} = {0 + 0 + ....} = 0.
After this patch it will not happen because the adjustment is
applied after accumulated.
v2:
- remove if()s, put new variables into signal_struct.
