sched: Allow balance callbacks for check_class_changed()
commit 4c9a4bc89a9cca8128bce67d6bc8870d6b7ee0b2 upstream. In order to remove dropping rq->lock from the switched_{to,from}()/prio_changed() sched_class methods, run the balance callbacks after it. We need to remove dropping rq->lock because its buggy, suppose using sched_setattr()/sched_setscheduler() to change a running task from FIFO to OTHER. By the time we get to switched_from_rt() the task is already enqueued on the cfs runqueues. If switched_from_rt() does pull_rt_task() and drops rq->lock, load-balancing can come in and move our task @p to another rq. The subsequent switched_to_fair() still assumes @p is on @rq and bad things will happen. By using balance callbacks we delay the load-balancing operations {rt,dl}x{push,pull} until we've done all the important work and the task is fully set up. Furthermore, the balance callbacks do not know about @p, therefore they cannot get confused like this.
