sched/core: Fix remote wakeups
Commit: b5179ac70de8 ("sched/fair: Prepare to fix fairness problems on migration") ... introduced a bug: Mike Galbraith found that it introduced a performance regression, while Paul E. McKenney reported lost wakeups and bisected it to this commit. The reason is that I mis-read ttwu_queue() such that I assumed any wakeup that got a remote queue must have had the task migrated. Since this is not so; we need to transfer this information between queueing the wakeup and actually doing the wakeup. Use a new task_struct::sched_flag for this, we already write to sched_contributes_to_load in the wakeup path so this is a hot and modified cacheline. Reported-by: Paul E.
