[ Upstream commitb7ca5743a2] It was reported that in 6.12, smpboot_create_threads() was taking much longer then in 6.6. I narrowed down the call path to: smpboot_create_threads() -> kthread_create_on_cpu() -> kthread_bind() -> __kthread_bind_mask() ->wait_task_inactive() Where in wait_task_inactive() we were regularly hitting the queued case, which sets a 1 tick timeout, which when called multiple times in a row, accumulates quickly into a long delay. I noticed disabling the DELAY_DEQUEUE sched feature recovered the performance, and it seems the newly create tasks are usually sched_delayed and left on the runqueue. So in wait_task_inactive() when we see the task p->se.sched_delayed, manually dequeue the sched_delayed task with DEQUEUE_DELAYED, so we don't have to constantly wait a tick.
