Linus Torvalds dda5df9823 Miscellaneous MMCID fixes to address bugs and
performance regressions in the recent rewrite
 of the SCHED_MM_CID management code:
 
  - Fix livelock triggered by BPF CI testing
 
  - Fix hard lockup on weakly ordered systems
 
  - Simplify the dropping of CIDs in the exit path
    by removing an unintended transition phase.
 
  - Fix performance/scalability regression on a
    thread-pool benchmark by optimizing transitional
    CIDs when scheduling out.
