sched: Prepare for Core-wide rq->lock
When switching on core-sched, CPUs need to agree which lock to use for their RQ. The new rule will be that rq->core_enabled will be toggled while holding all rq->__locks that belong to a core. This means we need to double check the rq->core_enabled value after each lock acquire and retry if it changed. This also has implications for those sites that take multiple RQ locks, they need to be careful that the second lock doesn't end up being the first lock. Verify the lock pointer after acquiring the first lock, because if they're on the same core, holding any of the rq->__lock instances will pin the core state. While there, change the rq->__lock order to CPU number, instead of rq address, this greatly simplifies the next patch.
