sched_ext: Fix stale direct dispatch state in ddsp_dsq_id
@p->scx.ddsp_dsq_id can be left set (non-SCX_DSQ_INVALID) triggering a
spurious warning in mark_direct_dispatch() when the next wakeup's
ops.select_cpu() calls scx_bpf_dsq_insert(), such as:
WARNING: kernel/sched/ext.c:1273 at scx_dsq_insert_commit+0xcd/0x140
The root cause is that ddsp_dsq_id was only cleared in dispatch_enqueue(),
which is not reached in all paths that consume or cancel a direct dispatch
verdict.
Fix it by clearing it at the right places:
- direct_dispatch(): cache the direct dispatch state in local variables
and clear it before dispatch_enqueue() on the synchronous path. For
the deferred path, the direct dispatch state must remain set until
process_ddsp_deferred_locals() consumes them.
- process_ddsp_deferred_locals(): cache the dispatch state in local
variables and clear it before calling dispatch_to_local_dsq(), which
may migrate the task to another rq.
- do_enqueue_task(): clear the dispatch state on the enqueue path
(local/global/bypass fallbacks), where the direct dispatch verdict is
ignored.
- dequeue_task_scx(): clear the dispatch state after dispatch_dequeue()
to handle both the deferred dispatch cancellation and the holding_cpu
race, covering all cases where a pending direct dispatch is
cancelled.
- scx_disable_task(): clear the direct dispatch state when
transitioning a task out of the current scheduler. Waking tasks may
have had the direct dispatch state set by the outgoing scheduler's
ops.select_cpu() and then been queued on a wake_list via
ttwu_queue_wakelist(), when SCX_OPS_ALLOW_QUEUED_WAKEUP is set. Such
tasks are not on the runqueue and are not iterated by scx_bypass(),
so their direct dispatch state won't be cleared. Without this clear,
any subsequent SCX scheduler that tries to direct dispatch the task
will trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_direct_dispatch().
