sched/uclamp: Fix a deadlock when enabling uclamp static key
The following splat was caught when setting uclamp value of a task: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at ./include/linux/percpu-rwsem.h:49 cpus_read_lock+0x68/0x130 static_key_enable+0x1c/0x38 __sched_setscheduler+0x900/0xad8 Fix by ensuring we enable the key outside of the critical section in __sched_setscheduler() Fixes: 46609ce22703 ("sched/uclamp: Protect uclamp fast path code with static key") Signed-off-by: Qais Yousef <qais.yousef@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200716110347.19553-4-qais.yousef@arm.com
