Update scx_task_locks so that it's safe to lock/unlock in a non-sleepable context in PREEMPT_RT kernels. scx_task_locks is (non-raw) spinlock used to protect the list of tasks under SCX. This list is updated during from finish_task_switch(), which cannot sleep. Regular spinlocks can be locked in such a context in non-RT kernels, but are sleepable under when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y. Convert scx_task_locks into a raw spinlock, which is not sleepable even on RT kernels.

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.
