Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "Scheduler Kconfig space updates:

   - Further consolidate configurable preemption modes (Peter Zijlstra)

     Reduce the number of architectures that are allowed to offer
     PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, reducing the number of
     preemption models from four to just two: 'full' and 'lazy' on
     up-to-date architectures (arm64, loongarch, powerpc, riscv, s390,
     x86).

     None and voluntary are only available as legacy features on
     platforms that don't implement lazy preemption yet, or which don't
     even support preemption.

     The goal is to eventually remove cond_resched() and voluntary
     preemption altogether.

  RSEQ based 'scheduler time slice extension' support (Thomas Gleixner
  and Peter Zijlstra):

  This allows a thread to request a time slice extension when it enters
  a critical section to avoid contention on a resource when the thread
  is scheduled out inside of the critical section.

   - Add fields and constants for time slice extension
   - Provide static branch for time slice extensions
   - Add statistics for time slice extensions
   - Add prctl() to enable time slice extensions
   - Implement sys_rseq_slice_yield()
   - Implement syscall entry work for time slice extensions
   - Implement time slice extension enforcement timer
   - Reset slice extension when scheduled
   - Implement rseq_grant_slice_extension()
   - entry: Hook up rseq time slice extension
   - selftests: Implement time slice extension test
   - Allow registering RSEQ with slice extension
   - Move slice_ext_nsec to debugfs
   - Lower default slice extension
   - selftests/rseq: Add rseq slice histogram script

  Scheduler performance/scalability improvements:

   - Update rq->avg_idle when a task is moved to an idle CPU, which
     improves the scalability of various workloads (Shubhang Kaushik)

   - Reorder fields in 'struct rq' for better caching (Blake Jones)

   - Fair scheduler SMP NOHZ balancing code speedups (Shrikanth Hegde):
      - Move checking for nohz cpus after time check
      - Change likelyhood of nohz.nr_cpus
      - Remove nohz.nr_cpus and use weight of cpumask instead

   - Avoid false sharing for sched_clock_irqtime (Wangyang Guo)

   - Cleanups (Yury Norov):
      - Drop useless cpumask_empty() in find_energy_efficient_cpu()
      - Simplify task_numa_find_cpu()
      - Use cpumask_weight_and() in sched_balance_find_dst_group()

  DL scheduler updates:

   - Add a deadline server for sched_ext tasks (by Andrea Righi and Joel
     Fernandes, with fixes by Peter Zijlstra)

  RT scheduler updates:

   - Skip currently executing CPU in rto_next_cpu() (Chen Jinghuang)

  Entry code updates and performance improvements (Jinjie Ruan)

  This is part of the scheduler tree in this cycle due to inter-
  dependencies with the RSEQ based time slice extension work:

    - Remove unused syscall argument from syscall_trace_enter()
    - Rework syscall_exit_to_user_mode_work() for architecture reuse
    - Add arch_ptrace_report_syscall_entry/exit()
    - Inline syscall_exit_work() and syscall_trace_enter()

  Scheduler core updates (Peter Zijlstra):

   - Rework sched_class::wakeup_preempt() and rq_modified_*()
   - Avoid rq->lock bouncing in sched_balance_newidle()
   - Rename rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() =>
            rcu_dereference_sched_domain()
   - <linux/compiler_types.h>: Add the __signed_scalar_typeof() helper

  Fair scheduler updates/refactoring (Peter Zijlstra and Ingo Molnar):

   - Fold the sched_avg update
   - Change rcu_dereference_check_sched_domain() to rcu-sched
   - Switch to rcu_dereference_all()
   - Remove superfluous rcu_read_lock()
   - Limit hrtick work
   - Join two #ifdef CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED blocks
   - Clean up comments in 'struct cfs_rq'
   - Separate se->vlag from se->vprot
   - Rename cfs_rq::avg_load to cfs_rq::sum_weight
   - Rename cfs_rq::avg_vruntime to ::sum_w_vruntime & helper functions
   - Introduce and use the vruntime_cmp() and vruntime_op() wrappers for
     wrapped-signed aritmetics
   - Sort out 'blocked_load*' namespace noise

  Scheduler debugging code updates:

   - Export hidden tracepoints to modules (Gabriele Monaco)

   - Convert copy_from_user() + kstrtouint() to kstrtouint_from_user()
     (Fushuai Wang)

   - Add assertions to QUEUE_CLASS (Peter Zijlstra)

   - hrtimer: Fix tracing oddity (Thomas Gleixner)

  Misc fixes and cleanups:

   - Re-evaluate scheduling when migrating queued tasks out of throttled
     cgroups (Zicheng Qu)

   - Remove task_struct->faults_disabled_mapping (Christoph Hellwig)

   - Fix math notation errors in avg_vruntime comment (Zhan Xusheng)

   - sched/cpufreq: Use %pe format for PTR_ERR() printing
     (zenghongling)"
