Merge tag 'sched_ext-for-6.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/sched_ext

Pull sched_ext updates from Tejun Heo:

 - Improve the default select_cpu() implementation making it topology
   aware and handle WAKE_SYNC better.

 - set_arg_maybe_null() was used to inform the verifier which ops args
   could be NULL in a rather hackish way. Use the new __nullable CFI
   stub tags instead.

 - On Sapphire Rapids multi-socket systems, a BPF scheduler, by
   hammering on the same queue across sockets, could live-lock the
   system to the point where the system couldn't make reasonable forward
   progress.

   This could lead to soft-lockup triggered resets or stalling out
   bypass mode switch and thus BPF scheduler ejection for tens of
   minutes if not hours. After trying a number of mitigations, the
   following set worked reliably:

     - Injecting artificial cpu_relax() loops in two places while
       sched_ext is trying to turn on the bypass mode.

     - Triggering scheduler ejection when soft-lockup detection is
       imminent (a quarter of threshold left).

   While not the prettiest, the impact both in terms of code complexity
   and overhead is minimal.

 - A common complaint on the API is the overuse of the word "dispatch"
   and the confusion around "consume". This is due to how the dispatch
   queues became more generic over time. Rename the affected kfuncs for
   clarity. Thanks to BPF's compatibility features, this change can be
   made in a way that's both forward and backward compatible. The
   compatibility code will be dropped in a few releases.

 - Other misc changes
