Currently, if the sleep flag is set, psi_dequeue() doesn't
change any of the psi_flags.
This is because psi_task_switch() will clear TSK_ONCPU as well
as other potential flags (TSK_RUNNING), and the assumption is
that a voluntary sleep always consists of a task being dequeued
followed shortly there after with a psi_sched_switch() call.
Proxy Execution changes this expectation, as mutex-blocked tasks
that would normally sleep stay on the runqueue. But in the case
where the mutex-owning task goes to sleep, or the owner is on a
remote cpu, we will then deactivate the blocked task shortly
after.
In that situation, the mutex-blocked task will have had its
TSK_ONCPU cleared when it was switched off the cpu, but it will
stay TSK_RUNNING. Then if we later dequeue it (as currently done
if we hit a case find_proxy_task() can't yet handle, such as the
case of the owner being on another rq or a sleeping owner)
psi_dequeue() won't change any state (leaving it TSK_RUNNING),
as it incorrectly expects a psi_task_switch() call to
immediately follow.
Later on when the task get woken/re-enqueued, and psi_flags are
set for TSK_RUNNING, we hit an error as the task is already
TSK_RUNNING:
psi: inconsistent task state! task=188:kworker/28:0 cpu=28 psi_flags=4 clear=0 set=4
To resolve this, extend the logic in psi_dequeue() so that
if the sleep flag is set, we also check if psi_flags have
TSK_ONCPU set (meaning the psi_task_switch is imminent) before
we do the shortcut return.
If TSK_ONCPU is not set, that means we've already switched away,
and this psi_dequeue call needs to clear the flags.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
