PATCH 25/28 sched: Fix cross-sched-class wakeup preemption

Commit: 1e5a74059f9059d330744eac84873b1b99657008 upstream
Author: Peter Zijlstra <[email protected]>
AuthorDate: Sun Oct 31 12:37:04 2010 +0100

Instead of dealing with sched classes inside each check_preempt_curr() implementation, pull out this logic into the generic wakeup preemption path.

This fixes a hang in KVM (and others) where we are waiting for the stop machine thread to run ...
