Subject[PATCH v3 1/7] sched: Expose move_queued_task() from core.c
Date
The migrate_task_to() function exposed from kernel/sched/core.c migrates
the current task, which is silently assumed to also be its first
argument, to the specified CPU. The function uses stop_one_cpu() to
migrate the task to the target CPU, which won't work if @p is not the
current task as the stop_one_cpu() callback isn't invoked on remote
CPUs.

While this operation is useful for task_numa_migrate() in fair.c, it
would be useful if move_queued_task() in core.c was given external
linkage, as it actually can be used to migrate any task to a CPU.

A follow-on patch will call move_queued_task() from fair.c when
migrating a task in a shared runqueue to a remote CPU.
