Peter Zijlstra ac66f54772 sched/numa: Introduce migrate_swap()
Use the new stop_two_cpus() to implement migrate_swap(), a function that
flips two tasks between their respective cpus.

I'm fairly sure there's a less crude way than employing the stop_two_cpus()
method, but everything I tried either got horribly fragile and/or complex. So
keep it simple for now.

The notable detail is how we 'migrate' tasks that aren't runnable
anymore. We'll make it appear like we migrated them before they went to
sleep. The sole difference is the previous cpu in the wakeup path, so we
override this.

Frederic Weisbecker 78becc2709 sched: Use an accessor to read the rq clock
Read the runqueue clock through an accessor. This
prepares for adding a debugging infrastructure to
detect missing or redundant calls to update_rq_clock()
between a scheduler's entry and exit point.

Mike Galbraith 8f6189684e sched: Fix migration thread runtime bogosity
Make stop scheduler class do the same accounting as other classes,

Migration threads can be caught in the act while doing exec balancing,
leading to the below due to use of unmaintained ->se.exec_start.  The
load that triggered this particular instance was an apparently out of
control heavily threaded application that does system monitoring in
what equated to an exec bomb, with one of the VERY frequently migrated
tasks being ps.

%CPU   PID USER     CMD
99.3    45 root     [migration/10]
97.7    53 root     [migration/12]
97.0    57 root     [migration/13]
90.1    49 root     [migration/11]
89.6    65 root     [migration/15]
88.7    17 root     [migration/3]
80.4    37 root     [migration/8]
78.1    41 root     [migration/9]

Peter Zijlstra 391e43da79 sched: Move all scheduler bits into kernel/sched/
There's too many sched*.[ch] files in kernel/, give them their own
directory.

(No code changed, other than Makefile glue added.)
