stop_machine, sched: Fix migrate_swap() vs. active_balance() deadlock
Matt reported the following deadlock:
CPU0 CPU1
schedule(.prev=migrate/0) <fault>
pick_next_task() ...
idle_balance() migrate_swap()
active_balance() stop_two_cpus()
spin_lock(stopper0->lock)
spin_lock(stopper1->lock)
ttwu(migrate/0)
smp_cond_load_acquire() -- waits for schedule()
stop_one_cpu(1)
spin_lock(stopper1->lock) -- waits for stopper lock
Fix this deadlock by taking the wakeups out from under stopper->lock.
This allows the active_balance() to queue the stop work and finish the
context switch, which in turn allows the wakeup from migrate_swap() to
observe the context and complete the wakeup.
