From: Xunlei Pang <pang.xunlei@linaro.org>

We know, there are two main queues each cpu for RT scheduler:
Let's call them "run queue" and "pushable queue" respectively.

For RT tasks, the scheduler uses "plist" to manage the pushable queue,
so when there are multiple tasks queued at the same priority, they get
queued in the strict FIFO order.

Currently, when an rt task gets queued, it is put to the head or the
tail of its "run queue" at the same priority according to different
scenarios. Then if it is migratable, it will also and always be put to
the tail of its "pushable queue" at the same priority.

For one cpu, assuming initially it has some migratable tasks queued
at the same priority as current(RT) both in "run queue" and "pushable
queue" in the same order. At some time, when current gets preempted, it
will be put behind these tasks in the "pushable queue", while it still
stays ahead of these tasks in the "run queue". Afterwards, if there comes
a pull from other cpu or a push from local cpu, the task behind current
in the "run queue" will be removed from the "pushable queue" and gets
running, as the global rt scheduler fetches tasks from the head of the
"pushable queue" to do pulling or pushing.

Obviously, to maintain the right order for the two queues, when current
is preempted(not involving re-queue in the "run queue"), we want to put it
ahead of all those tasks queued at the same priority in the "pushable queue".

So, if a task is running and gets preempted by a higher priority
task or even with same priority for migrating, this patch ensures
that it is put ahead of any existing task with the same priority in
the "pushable queue".

The handling logic used here:
 - Add a new variable named "rt_preempt"(define a new flag named
   RT_PREEMPT_QUEUEAHEAD for it) in task_struct, used by RT.
 - When doing preempted resched_curr() for current RT, set the flag.
   Create a new resched_curr_preempted_rt() for this function, and
   replace all the possible resched_curr() used for rt preemption with
   resched_curr_preempted_rt().
 - In put_prev_task_rt(), test RT_PREEMPT_QUEUEAHEAD if set, enqueue
   the task ahead in the "pushable queue" and clear the flag.
