kthread: Fix the race condition when kthread is parked

While stressing the CPU hotplug path, sometimes we hit a problem
as shown below.

This issue was always seen in the context of "ksoftirqd". It seems to
be happening because of a potential race condition in __kthread_parkme
where just after completing the parked completion, before the
ksoftirqd task has been scheduled again, it can go into running state.

Fix this by waiting for the task state to parked after waiting the
parked completion.

cpufreq: Introduce new relation for freq selection

Introduce CPUFREQ_RELATION_C for frequency selection.
It selects the frequency with the minimum euclidean distance
to target. In case of equal distance between 2 frequencies,
it will select the greater freq.

kthread: introduce to_live_kthread()

"k->vfork_done != NULL" with a barrier() after to_kthread(k) in
task_get_live_kthread(k) looks unclear, and sub-optimal because we load
->vfork_done twice.

All we need is to ensure that we do not return to_kthread(NULL).  Add a
new trivial helper which loads/checks ->vfork_done once, this also looks
more understandable.

kthread: kill task_get_live_kthread()

task_get_live_kthread() looks confusing and unneeded.  It does
get_task_struct() but only kthread_stop() needs this, it can be called
even if the calller doesn't have a reference when we know that this
kthread can't exit until we do kthread_stop().

kthread_park() and kthread_unpark() do not need get_task_struct(), the
callers already have the reference.  And it can not help if we can race
with the exiting kthread anyway, kthread_park() can hang forever in this
case.

Change kthread_park() and kthread_unpark() to use to_live_kthread(),
change kthread_stop() to do get_task_struct() by hand and remove
task_get_live_kthread().

kthread: implement probe_kthread_data()

One of the problems that arise when converting dedicated custom threadpool
to workqueue is that the shared worker pool used by workqueue anonimizes
each worker making it more difficult to identify what the worker was doing
on which target from the output of sysrq-t or debug dump from oops, BUG()
and friends.

For example, after writeback is converted to use workqueue instead of
priviate thread pool, there's no easy to tell which backing device a
writeback work item was working on at the time of task dump, which,
according to our writeback brethren, is important in tracking down issues
with a lot of mounted file systems on a lot of different devices.

This patchset implements a way for a work function to mark its execution
instance so that task dump of the worker task includes information to
indicate what the work item was doing.

An example WARN dump would look like the following.

  ...

This patch:

Implement probe_kthread_data() which returns kthread_data if accessible.
The function is equivalent to kthread_data() except that the specified
@task may not be a kthread or its vfork_done is already cleared rendering
struct kthread inaccessible.  In the former case, probe_kthread_data() may
return any value.  In the latter, NULL.

This will be used to safely print debug information without affecting
synchronization in the normal paths.  Workqueue debug info printing on
dump_stack() and friends will make use of it.
