Subject[PATCH 1/2] sched/core: Export wake_q functions to kernel modules
Date
The use of wake_q_add() and wake_up_q() functions help to do task wakeup
without holding lock can help to reduce lock hold time. They should be
available to kernel modules as well.

A new wake_q_empty() inline function is also added.
