scx_select_cpu_dfl() narrows @allowed to @cpus_allowed & @p->cpus_ptr
when the BPF caller supplies a @cpus_allowed that differs from
@p->cpus_ptr and @p doesn't have full affinity. However,
@is_prev_allowed was computed against the original (wider)
@cpus_allowed, so the prev_cpu fast paths could pick a @prev_cpu that
is in @cpus_allowed but not in @p->cpus_ptr, violating the intended
invariant that the returned CPU is always usable by @p. The kernel
masks this via the SCX_EV_SELECT_CPU_FALLBACK fallback, but the
behavior contradicts the documented contract.
Move the @is_prev_allowed evaluation past the narrowing block so it
tests against the final @allowed mask.
