Subject: [PATCH] sched/core: Add missing completion for affine_move_task() waiters

Qian reported that some fuzzer issuing sched_setaffinity() ends up stuck on
a wait_for_completion(). The problematic pattern seems to be:

affine_move_task()
// task_running() case
stop_one_cpu();
wait_for_completion(&pending->done);

Combined with, on the stopper side:

migration_cpu_stop()
// Task moved between unlocks and scheduling the stopper
task_rq(p) != rq &&
// task_running() case
dest_cpu >= 0

=> no complete_all()

This can happen with both PREEMPT and !PREEMPT, although !PREEMPT should
be more likely to see this given the targeted task has a much bigger window
to block and be woken up elsewhere before the stopper runs.

Make migration_cpu_stop() always look at pending affinity requests; signal
their completion if the stopper hits a rq mismatch but the task is
still within its allowed mask. When Migrate-Disable isn't involved, this
matches the previous set_cpus_allowed_ptr() vs migration_cpu_stop()
behaviour.

Oh, I did not receive this patch from '[email protected]'
account. Checked that you sent the patch to that mail address
from web. If 'ouwen210' is not a good mail account name(I have
used this name since 2002), I will change to use this one(Now
is smooth enough and can go to lkml).

Thanks,
Tao

Nah, any address is fine. I grabbed whatever emails were cc'd to the patch
this is fixing - just make sure you're using the right address (i.e. the
one you want LKML stuff to go to) when interacting on the list and you
should be good.
