sched/cache: Keep nr_pref_llc_running in the runnable domain, to fix LLC mis-scheduling buggrafted

alb_break_llc() decides whether to break LLC preference during active
load balance. It does so by testing that every runnable fair task on the
source rq prefers its LLC:

	env->src_rq->nr_pref_llc_running == env->src_rq->cfs.h_nr_runnable

But the two counters cover different sets. nr_pref_llc_running is updated
in account_llc_enqueue()/account_llc_dequeue(), next to cfs_rq->nr_queued,
so it follows queued tasks. h_nr_runnable is updated in set_delayed()/
clear_delayed() and drops delay-dequeued tasks.

So under DELAY_DEQUEUE, a preferring task that goes to sleep stays counted
in nr_pref_llc_running while h_nr_runnable falls. The equality then breaks,
alb_break_llc() returns false, and active balance is free to pull a task
off its preferred LLC. Active balance only moves runnable tasks, and this
is the only LLC check it consults: once the stopper runs, LBF_ACTIVE_LB
skips the per-task test in can_migrate_task(). The runnable set is the one
we want.

Fix it on the counter side. A task should be counted in
nr_pref_llc_running exactly while it is both queued on its preferred LLC
(pref_llc_queued) and runnable (!sched_delayed). Define that membership
once in task_pref_llc_runnable(), and adjust the counter only through
pref_llc_running_inc()/pref_llc_running_dec() from the four sites that
change either input: account_llc_enqueue(), account_llc_dequeue(),
set_delayed() and clear_delayed(). Gating every update on the same
predicate keeps the delay, wake and dequeue paths from double-counting
or underflowing; see the comments at those sites for the ordering.

nr_llc_running and sd->llc_counts are not touched and stay on queued
semantics.

+eCryptfs: A stacked cryptographic filesystem for Linux
+======================================================
+
+eCryptfs is free software. Please see the file COPYING for details.
+For documentation, please see the files in the doc/ subdirectory.  For
+building and installation instructions please see the INSTALL file.
+
+:Maintainer: Phillip Hellewell
+:Lead developer: Michael A. Halcrow <mhalcrow@us.ibm.com>
+:Developers: Michael C. Thompson
+             Kent Yoder
+:Web Site: http://ecryptfs.sf.net
+
+This software is currently undergoing development. Make sure to
+maintain a backup copy of any data you write into eCryptfs.
+
+eCryptfs requires the userspace tools downloadable from the
+SourceForge site:
+
+http://sourceforge.net/projects/ecryptfs/
+
+Userspace requirements include:
+
+- David Howells' userspace keyring headers and libraries (version
+  1.0 or higher), obtainable from
+  http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/keyutils/
+- Libgcrypt
+
+
+.. note::
+
+   In the beta/experimental releases of eCryptfs, when you upgrade
+   eCryptfs, you should copy the files to an unencrypted location and
+   then copy the files back into the new eCryptfs mount to migrate the
+   files.
+
+
+Mount-wide Passphrase
+=====================
+
+Create a new directory into which eCryptfs will write its encrypted
+files (i.e., /root/crypt).  Then, create the mount point directory
+(i.e., /mnt/crypt).  Now it's time to mount eCryptfs::
+
+    mount -t ecryptfs /root/crypt /mnt/crypt
+
+You should be prompted for a passphrase and a salt (the salt may be
+blank).
+
+Try writing a new file::
+
+    echo "Hello, World" > /mnt/crypt/hello.txt
+
+The operation will complete.  Notice that there is a new file in
+/root/crypt that is at least 12288 bytes in size (depending on your
+host page size).  This is the encrypted underlying file for what you
+just wrote.  To test reading, from start to finish, you need to clear
+the user session keyring:
+
+keyctl clear @u
+
+Then umount /mnt/crypt and mount again per the instructions given
+above.
+
+::
+
+    cat /mnt/crypt/hello.txt
+
+
+Notes
+=====
+
+eCryptfs version 0.1 should only be mounted on (1) empty directories
+or (2) directories containing files only created by eCryptfs. If you
+mount a directory that has pre-existing files not created by eCryptfs,
+then behavior is undefined. Do not run eCryptfs in higher verbosity
+levels unless you are doing so for the sole purpose of debugging or
+development, since secret values will be written out to the system log
+in that case.
