Peter Zijlstra fa02b28684 sched/core: Fix inter-class wakeup_preempt()
The way wakeup_preempt() works since commit 704069649b ("sched/core: Rework
sched_class::wakeup_preempt() and rq_modified_*()") is that it will call
rq->next_class->wakeup_preempt(rq, p) when p is of an equal or higher class,
and raise ->next_class when higher.

This means that:

	running idle task

	wakeup fair-A
	  (next_class == idle)
	  if (sched_class_above(fair, idle)) {
	     wakeup_preempt_idle(fair-A);
	     resched_curr(rq);
	     next_class = fair;
	  }

	wakeup fair-B
	  (next_class == fair)
	  if (fair == fair)
	    wakeup_preempt_fair(fair-B);
	      (but current is idle)

All wakeup_preempt_$class() methods, except for wakeup_preempt_scx() (for whoem
this was build) ignore cross-class wakeups by testing if @p is of the right
class, but per the above case, it also should check current.

This is mostly harmless in the current form, but will lead to trouble with
later patches.
