Liang Chen 52d322f919 kthread: Do not preempt current task if it is going to call schedule() 
commit 26c7295be0 upstream.

when we create a kthread with ktrhead_create_on_cpu(),the child thread
entry is ktread.c:ktrhead() which will be preempted by the parent after
call complete(done) while schedule() is not called yet,then the parent
will call wait_task_inactive(child) but the child is still on the runqueue,
so the parent will schedule_hrtimeout() for 1 jiffy,it will waste a lot of
time,especially on startup.

  parent                             child
ktrhead_create_on_cpu()
  wait_fo_completion(&done) -----> ktread.c:ktrhead()
                             |----- complete(done);--wakeup and preempted by parent
 kthread_bind() <------------|  |-> schedule();--dequeue here
  wait_task_inactive(child)     |
   schedule_hrtimeout(1 jiffy) -|

So we hope the child just wakeup parent but not preempted by parent, and the
child is going to call schedule() soon,then the parent will not call
schedule_hrtimeout(1 jiffy) as the child is already dequeue.

The same issue for ktrhead_park()&&kthread_parkme().
This patch can save 120ms on rk312x startup with CONFIG_HZ=300.

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 Restructured Text 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.
