[RFD/RFC PATCH 7/8] sched: Ensure blocked_on is always guarded by blocked_lock

From: Juri Lelli
Date: Tue Oct 09 2018 - 05:25:24 EST


blocked_on pointer might be concurrently modified by schedule() (when
proxy() is called) and by wakeup path, so we need to guard changes.

Ensure blocked_lock is always held before updating blocked_on pointer.
