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.

+ * DSCP Pools and Codepoint Space Division:
+ *
+ * The Differentiated Services (Diffserv) architecture defines a method for
+ * classifying and managing network traffic using the DS field in IPv4 and IPv6
+ * packet headers. This field can carry one of 64 distinct DSCP (Differentiated
+ * Services Code Point) values, which are divided into three pools based on
+ * their Least Significant Bits (LSB) patterns and intended usage. Each pool has
+ * a specific registration procedure for assigning DSCP values:
+ *
+ * Pool 1 (Standards Action Pool):
+ * - Codepoint Space: xxxxx0
+ * This pool includes DSCP values ending in '0' (binary), allocated via
+ * Standards Action. It is intended for globally recognized traffic classes,
+ * ensuring interoperability across the internet. This pool encompasses
+ * well-known DSCP values such as CS0-CS7, AFxx, EF, and VOICE-ADMIT.
+ *
+ * Pool 2 (Experimental/Local Use Pool):
+ * - Codepoint Space: xxxx11
+ * Reserved for DSCP values ending in '11' (binary), this pool is designated
+ * for Experimental or Local Use. It allows for private or temporary traffic
+ * marking schemes not intended for standardized global use, facilitating
+ * testing and network-specific configurations without impacting
+ * interoperability.
+ *
+ * Pool 3 (Preferential Standardization Pool):
+ * - Codepoint Space: xxxx01
+ * Initially reserved for experimental or local use, this pool now serves as
+ * a secondary standardization resource should Pool 1 become exhausted. DSCP
+ * values ending in '01' (binary) are assigned via Standards Action, with a
+ * focus on adopting new, standardized traffic classes as the need arises.
+ *
+ * For pool updates see:
+ * https://www.iana.org/assignments/dscp-registry/dscp-registry.xhtml
