When some SCX operations are in flight, it is known that the subject task's rq lock is held throughout which makes it safe to access certain fields of the task - e.g. its current task_group. We want to add SCX kfunc helpers that can make use of this guarantee - e.g. to help determining the currently associated CPU cgroup from the task's current task_group. As it'd be dangerous call such a helper on a task which isn't rq lock protected, the helper should be able to verify the input task and reject accordingly. This patch adds sched_ext_entity.kf_tasks[] that track the tasks which are currently being operated on by a terminal SCX operation. The new SCX_CALL_OP_[2]TASK[_RET]() can be used when invoking SCX operations which take tasks as arguments and the scx_kf_allowed_on_arg_tasks() can be used by kfunc helpers to verify the input task status. Note that as sched_ext_entity.kf_tasks[] can't handle nesting, the tracking is currently only limited to terminal SCX operations. If needed in the future, this restriction can be removed by moving the tracking to the task side with a couple per-task counters. v2: Updated to reflect the addition of SCX_KF_SELECT_CPU.
