Subject[PATCH 1/3] sched/deadline: clear dl_entity params when setscheduling to different class
Date
When a task is using SCHED_DEADLINE and the user setschedules it to a different
class its sched_dl_entity static parameters are not cleaned up. This causes a
bug if the user sets it back to SCHED_DEADLINE with the same parameters again.
The problem resides in the check we perform at the very beginning of
dl_overflow():

if (new_bw == p->dl.dl_bw)
return 0;

This condition is met in the case depicted above, so the function returns and
dl_b->total_bw is not updated (the p->dl.dl_bw is not added to it). After this,
admission control is broken.

This patch fixes the thing, properly clearing static parameters for a task
that ceases to use SCHED_DEADLINE.
