Andrea Righi 1427d7d347 scx_rlfifo: enhance code design
Refactor the code design to make it more suitable as a template for
implementing advanced scheduling policies.

In particular, create separate loops for task consumption and task
dispatching. This will make the scheduler easier to adapt as a
foundation for implementing more complex scheduling policies.

scx_rlfifo

This is a single user-defined scheduler used within sched_ext, which is a Linux kernel feature which enables implementing kernel thread schedulers in BPF and dynamically loading them. Read more about sched_ext.

Overview

scx_rlfifo is a simple FIFO scheduler runs in user-space, based on the scx_rustland_core framework.

Typical Use Case

This scheduler is provided as a simple template that can be used as a baseline to test more complex scheduling policies.

Production Ready?

Definitely not. Using this scheduler in a production environment is not recommended, unless there are specific requirements that necessitate a basic FIFO scheduling approach. Even then, it's still recommended to use the kernel's SCHED_FIFO real-time class.
