[ Upstream commit 61019afdf6ac17c8e8f9c42665aa1fa82f04a3e2 ]
The recent lockdep splat [1] highlights a potential deadlock risk involving ->elevator_lock and ->freeze_lock dependencies on -pcpu_alloc_ mutex. The trace shows that the issue occurs when the Kyber scheduler allocates dynamic memory for its elevator data during initialization.
To address this, introduce two new elevator operation callbacks: ->alloc_sched_data and ->free_sched_data. The subsequent patch would build upon these newly introduced methods to suppress lockdep splat[1].
