sched/core: Avoid spurious lock dependencies
While seemingly harmless, __sched_fork() does hrtimer_init(), which, when DEBUG_OBJETS, can end up doing allocations. This then results in the following lock order: rq->lock zone->lock.rlock batched_entropy_u64.lock Which in turn causes deadlocks when we do wakeups while holding that batched_entropy lock -- as the random code does. Solve this by moving __sched_fork() out from under rq->lock. This is safe because nothing there relies on rq->lock, as also evident from the other __sched_fork() callsite.
