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.

+ *
+ * Note: this translation from ethtool tx/rx notation to the advertisement
+ * is actually very problematical. Here are some examples:
+ *
+ * For tx=0 rx=1, meaning transmit is unsupported, receive is supported:
+ *
+ *  Local device  Link partner
+ *  Pause AsymDir Pause AsymDir Result
+ *    1     1       1     0     TX + RX - but we have no TX support.
+ *    1     1       0     1	Only this gives RX only
+ *
+ * For tx=1 rx=1, meaning we have the capability to transmit and receive
+ * pause frames:
+ *
+ *  Local device  Link partner
+ *  Pause AsymDir Pause AsymDir Result
+ *    1     0       0     1     Disabled - but since we do support tx and rx,
+ *				this should resolve to RX only.
+ *
+ * Hence, asking for:
+ *  rx=1 tx=0 gives Pause+AsymDir advertisement, but we may end up
+ *            resolving to tx+rx pause or only rx pause depending on
+ *            the partners advertisement.
+ *  rx=0 tx=1 gives AsymDir only, which will only give tx pause if
+ *            the partners advertisement allows it.
+ *  rx=1 tx=1 gives Pause only, which will only allow tx+rx pause
+ *            if the other end also advertises Pause.
