sched/rt: Up the root domain ref count when passing it around via IPIs
commit 364f56653708ba8bcdefd4f0da2a42904baa8eeb upstream. When issuing an IPI RT push, where an IPI is sent to each CPU that has more than one RT task scheduled on it, it references the root domain's rto_mask, that contains all the CPUs within the root domain that has more than one RT task in the runable state. The problem is, after the IPIs are initiated, the rq->lock is released. This means that the root domain that is associated to the run queue could be freed while the IPIs are going around. Add a sched_get_rd() and a sched_put_rd() that will increment and decrement the root domain's ref count respectively. This way when initiating the IPIs, the scheduler will up the root domain's ref count before releasing the rq->lock, ensuring that the root domain does not go away until the IPI round is complete.
