Marco Elver 04e49d926f sched: Enable context analysis for core.c and fair.c
This demonstrates a larger conversion to use Clang's context
analysis. The benefit is additional static checking of locking rules,
along with better documentation.

Notably, kernel/sched contains sufficiently complex synchronization
patterns, and application to core.c & fair.c demonstrates that the
latest Clang version has become powerful enough to start applying this
to more complex subsystems (with some modest annotations and changes).
