Hello,

v2: v1's 0003 only added NULL checks and, as Andrea and sashiko-bot pointed
    out, left the cid tables readable while being filled and rewritten in
    place. The new 0004 replaces it: each root enable builds a fresh table
    set privately and publishes it with RCU once the layout is final. 0003
    is a new trivial dead code removal. 0001-0002 are unchanged.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]

A few fixes for the sub-scheduler and cid-form code on for-7.3.

- 0001 attributes a runnable stall to the scheduler that owns the DSQ the
  task is stuck on rather than the task's owner, so a bypassing sub's task
  parked on an ancestor's bypass DSQ blames the ancestor, not the sub.

- 0002 skips the default CPU selection while bypassing. The pick is discarded
  by the bypass enqueue anyway, and it consults idle masks a scheduler doing
  its own idle tracking leaves frozen.

- 0003 drops the unused scx_cpumask_to_cmask().

- 0004 ties the cid tables' lifetimes to the root sched: built privately on
  enable, published with RCU once final, unpublished and RCU-freed on
  disable.

Based on sched_ext/for-7.3 (b20dfde5ec54).
