Pull scheduler fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A set of fixes for the scheduler:

   - Fix handling of throttled parents in enqueue_task_fair() completely.

     The recent fix overlooked a corner case where the first iteration
     terminates due to an entity already being on the runqueue which
     makes the list management incomplete and later triggers the
     assertion which checks for completeness.

   - Fix a similar problem in unthrottle_cfs_rq().

   - Show the correct uclamp values in procfs which prints the effective
     value twice instead of requested and effective"

- Convert interrupt handler to per-ep-thread-irq

  As it turns out some DWC3-commands ~1ms to complete. Currently we spin
  until the command completes which is bad.

  Implementation idea:

  - dwc core implements a demultiplexing irq chip for interrupts per
    endpoint. The interrupt numbers are allocated during probe and belong
    to the device. If MSI provides per-endpoint interrupt this dummy
    interrupt chip can be replaced with "real" interrupts.
  - interrupts are requested / allocated on usb_ep_enable() and removed on
    usb_ep_disable(). Worst case are 32 interrupts, the lower limit is two
    for ep0/1.
  - dwc3_send_gadget_ep_cmd() will sleep in wait_for_completion_timeout()
    until the command completes.
  - the interrupt handler is split into the following pieces:

    - primary handler of the device
      goes through every event and calls generic_handle_irq() for event
      it. On return from generic_handle_irq() in acknowledges the event
      counter so interrupt goes away (eventually).

    - threaded handler of the device
      none

    - primary handler of the EP-interrupt
      reads the event and tries to process it. Everything that requires
      sleeping is handed over to the Thread. The event is saved in an
      per-endpoint data-structure.
      We probably have to pay attention not to process events once we
      handed something to thread so we don't process event X prio Y
      where X > Y.

    - threaded handler of the EP-interrupt
      handles the remaining EP work which might sleep such as waiting
      for command completion.

  Latency:

   There should be no increase in latency since the interrupt-thread has a
   high priority and will be run before an average task in user land
   (except the user changed priorities).
