    Subject[PATCH 02/10] sched: Move the NUMA placement logic to a worklet
    Date
    As an implementational detail, to be able to do directed task placement
    we have to change how task_numa_fault() interfaces with the scheduler:
    instead of the placement logic being executed directly from the fault
    path we now trigger a worklet, similarly to how we do the NUMA
    hinting fault work.

    This moves placement into process context and allows the execution of the
    directed task-flipping code via sched_rebalance_to().

    This further decouples the NUMA hinting fault engine from
    the actual NUMA placement logic.
