scx_lavd implemented 32 and 64 bit versions of a base-2 logarithm
function. This is now also used in rusty. To avoid code duplication,
let's pull it into a shared header.
Note that there is technically a functional change here as we remove the
always inline compiler directive. We instead assume that the compiler
will know best whether or not to inline the function.

Only the very newest kernels support scx_bpf_cpuperf_set(). Let's update
scx_layered to accommodate older kernels as well.

This change adds `scx_bpf_cpuperf_cap`, `scx_bpf_cpuperf_cur` and
`scx_bpf_cpuperf_set` definitions that were recently introduced into
[`sched_ext`](https://github.com/sched-ext/sched_ext/pull/180). It adds
a `perf` field to `scx_layered` to allow for controlling performance per
layer.

The scx_rusty scheduler does not support hotplug, and expects a static
host topology throughout its runtime. Though the kernel does have
support for detecting hotplug events, we currently don't detect this in
the kernel, nor surface it to user space when it happens. Now that we
have scx_bpf_exit(), we can gracefully exit the kernel in the event of a
hotplug, and communicate to user space that it should restart the
scheduler.
This patch adds that support to scx_rusty. Note that this assumes that
we're running on a recent enough kernel that has scx_bpf_exit(). If it
doesn't, then we instead just error out of the kernel scheduler and exit
the application.

Synchronize stragglers.
- Bug fix in __COMPAT_read_enum().
- A cosmetic difference in scx_qmap.bpf.c.
- Stray 'p' when calling getopt() in scx_simple.c.
After this the kernel tree and scx repo are in sync.
Sync from kernel to receive new vmlinux.h and the updates to common headers.
This includes the following updates:
- scx_bpf_switch_all() is replaced by SCX_OPS_SWITCH_PARTIAL flag.
- sched_ext_ops.exit_dump_len added to allow customizing dump buffer size.
- scx_bpf_exit() added.
- Common headers updated to provide backward compatibility in a way which
hides most complexities from scheduler implementations.
scx_simple, qmap, central and flatcg are updated accordingly. Other
schedulers are broken for the moment.
The flatcg scheduler uses a rb_node type - struct cgv_node - to keep
track of vtime. On cgroup init, a cgv_node is created and stashed in a
hashmap - cgv_node_stash - for later use. In cgroup_enqueued and
try_pick_next_cgroup, the node is inserted into the rbtree, which
required removing it from the stash before this patch's changes.
This patch makes cgv_node refcounted, which allows keeping it in the
stash for the entirety of the cgroup's lifetime. Unnecessary
bpf_kptr_xchg's and other boilerplate can be removed as a result.
Note that in addition to bpf_refcount patches, which have been upstream
for quite some time, this change depends on a more recent series [0].

SCX_KICK_IDLE is a new feature which isn't defined in older kernels. Add
compat wrapper and use it for idle CPU wakeups.

changed scx_exit_info which requires us to rebuild with a new vmlinux.h
This patch updates vmlinux.h to the current sched_ext branch in the
github repo.

In the latest kernel, sched_ext API has changed in two areas:
- ops.prep_enable/cancel_enable/enable/disable() replaced with
ops.init_task/enable/disable/exit_task().
- scx_bpf_dispatch() can now be called from ops.select_cpu(). Also,
SCX_ENQ_LOCAL flag is removed. Instead, users can call
scx_bpf_select_cpu_dfl() from ops.select_cpu() and use the @is_idle out
param value to determine whether to dispatch directly.
This commit updates all schedules so that they build.
- Init functions renamed / merged / split.
- ops.select_cpu() is added to several schedulers and local direct
disptching logic is moved there.
This is the minimum update which is need to make the schedulers build and
work. It needs further update to e.g. move vtime udpates to ops.enable().
Improve build portability by including asm-generic/errno.h, instead of
linux/errno.h.
The difference between these two headers can be summarized as following:
- asm-generic/errno.h contains generic error code definitions that are
intended to be common across different architectures,
- linux/errno.h includes architecture-specific error codes and
provides additional (or overrides) error code definitions based on
the specific architecture where the code is compiled.
Considering the architecture-independent nature of scx, the advantages
of being able to use architecture-specific error codes are marginal or
negligible (and we should probably discourage using them).
Moving towards asm-generic/errno.h, however, allows the removal of
cross-compilation dependencies (such as the gcc-multilib package in
Debian/Ubuntu) and improves the code portability across various
architectures and distributions.
This also allows to remove a symlink hack from the github workflow.
