[PATCH v3 00/11] sched_ext: Implement core event counters

[Changwoo Min <changwoo@igalia.com>]

The sched_ext core often has to override the BPF scheduler decisions,
and some events could be interesting but not easily visible.

This patchset aims to address such a problem in the following manner:
  - Introduce an infrastructure to collect such events in a scalable and
    extensible way and to expose the collected events to the BPF scheduler
    in a compatible way.
  - Define seven events to be collected.
  - Modify an scx scheduler to demonstrate the usage of the new BPF APIs.

ChangeLog: v2 -> v3
  - Rename scx_bpf_event_stats() to scx_bpf_events().
  - Add a prefix SCX_EV_ to all event names.
  - Change the implementation SCX_EV_SELECT_CPU_FALLBACK such that
    record the selected cpu (p->scx.selected_cpu) in
    select_task_rq_scx() and compare it in enqueue_task_scx() to
    reliably count events.
  - Change the implementation of SCX_EV_BYPASS_DISPATCH such that log
    the event where the condition is initially detected.
  - Modify scx_qmap to print the core event counter every second.
  - Remove unnecessary white space in patch 6.

ChangeLog: v1 -> v2
  - Rename scx_event_stat and scx_bpf_event_stat() to scx_event_stats and
    scx_bpf_event_stats().
  - Rename event names following the convention of $COMPONENT_$EVENT.
  - Rename event_stats to event_stats_cpu.
  - Drop the enum scx_event_kind and related macros.
  - Revise scx_add_event() to use this_cpu_add().
  - Add __scx_add_event() to use __this_cpu_add().
  - Move the event counter resetting code to the loading of a BPF scheduler.
  - The bypass-related event is further categorized into three events:
    BYPASS_ACTIVATE, BYPASS_DISPATCH, and BYPASS_DURATION.
  - Revise SELECT_CPU_FALLBACK to capture the case of the chosen CPU is not
    allowed.
  - Move is_cpu_allowed() from core.c to sched.h to use in the
    SELECT_CPU_FALLBACK code.
