Tejun Heo e9fe182772 sched_ext: selftests/dsp_local_on: Fix sporadic failures
dsp_local_on has several incorrect assumptions, one of which is that
p->nr_cpus_allowed always tracks p->cpus_ptr. This is not true when a task
is scheduled out while migration is disabled - p->cpus_ptr is temporarily
overridden to the previous CPU while p->nr_cpus_allowed remains unchanged.

This led to sporadic test faliures when dsp_local_on_dispatch() tries to put
a migration disabled task to a different CPU. Fix it by keeping the previous
CPU when migration is disabled.

There are SCX schedulers that make use of p->nr_cpus_allowed. They should
also implement explicit handling for p->migration_disabled.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
