Currently ttwu() does two rq->lock acquisitions, once on the task's old rq, holding it over the p->state fiddling and load-balance pass. Then it drops the old rq->lock to acquire the new rq->lock. By having serialized ttwu(), p->sched_class, p->cpus_allowed with p->pi_lock, we can now drop the whole first rq->lock acquisition. The p->pi_lock serializing concurrent ttwu() calls protects p->state, which we will set to TASK_WAKING to bridge possible p->pi_lock to rq->lock gaps and serialize set_task_cpu() calls against task_rq_lock(). The p->pi_lock serialization of p->sched_class allows us to call scheduling class methods without holding the rq->lock, and the serialization of p->cpus_allowed allows us to do the load-balancing bits without races.
