Merge tag 'sched-urgent-2023-01-12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull scheduler fixes from Ingo Molnar:

 - Fix scheduler frequency invariance bug related to overly long
   tickless periods triggering an integer overflow and disabling the
   feature.

 - Fix use-after-free bug in dup_user_cpus_ptr().

 - Fix do_set_cpus_allowed() deadlock scenarios related to calling
   kfree() with the pi_lock held. NOTE: the rcu_free() is the 'lazy'
   solution here - we looked at patches to free the structure after the
   pi_lock got dropped, but that looked quite a bit messier - and none
   of this is truly performance critical. We can revisit this if it's
   too lazy of a solution ...
