Pavankumar Kondeti 29203f8c8f ANDROID: cgroup: Add android_rvh_cgroup_force_kthread_migration ...

In Android GKI, CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED is enabled [1] to help
prioritize important work. Given that CPU shares of root cgroup
can't be changed, leaving the tasks inside root cgroup will give
them higher share compared to the other tasks inside important
cgroups. This is mitigated by moving all tasks inside root cgroup to
a different cgroup after Android is booted. However, there are many
kernel tasks stuck in the root cgroup after the boot.

It is possible to relax kernel threads and kworkers migrations under
certain scenarios. However the patch [2] posted at upstream is not
accepted. Hence add a restricted vendor hook to notify modules when a
kernel thread is requested for cgroup migration. The modules can relax
the restrictions forced by the kernel and allow the cgroup migration.
