Linus Torvalds feacb1774b sched_ext: Changes for v6.16
- More in-kernel idle CPU selection improvements. Expand topology awareness
   coverage add scx_bpf_select_cpu_and() to allow more flexibility. The idle
   CPU selection kfuncs can now be called from unlocked contexts too.
 
 - A bunch of reorganization changes to lay the foundation for multiple
   hierarchical scheduler support. This isn't ready yet and the included
   changes don't make meaningful behavior differences. One notable change is
   replacing some static_key tests with dynamic tests as the test results may
   differ depending on the scheduler instance. This isn't expected to cause
   meaningful performance difference.
 
 - Other minor and doc updates.
 
 - There were multiple patches in for-6.15-fixes which conflicted with
   changes in for-6.16. for-6.15-fixes were pulled three times into for-6.16
   to resolve the conflicts.
