 *                                CPU). However, it will not requeue the
 *                                previously linked task (if any). It will set
 *                                T's state to RT_F_RUNNING and check whether
 *                                it is already running somewhere else. If T
 *                                is scheduled somewhere else it will link
 *                                it to that CPU instead (and pull the linked
 *                                task to cpu). T may be NULL.
 *
 * unlink(T)			- Unlink removes T from all scheduler data
 *                                structures. If it is linked to some CPU it
 *                                will link NULL to that CPU. If it is
 *                                currently queued in the gsnedf queue it will
 *                                be removed from the rt_domain. It is safe to
 *                                call unlink(T) if T is not linked. T may not
 *                                be NULL.
 *
 * requeue(T)			- Requeue will insert T into the appropriate
 *                                queue. If the system is in real-time mode and
 *                                the T is released already, it will go into the
 *                                ready queue. If the system is not in
 *                                real-time mode is T, then T will go into the
 *                                release queue. If T's release time is in the
 *                                future, it will go into the release
 *                                queue. That means that T's release time/job
 *                                no/etc. has to be updated before requeu(T) is
 *                                called. It is not safe to call requeue(T)
 *                                when T is already queued. T may not be NULL.
 *
 * gsnedf_job_arrival(T)	- This is the catch all function when T enters
 *                                the system after either a suspension or at a
 *                                job release. It will queue T (which means it
 *                                is not safe to call gsnedf_job_arrival(T) if
 *                                T is already queued) and then check whether a
 *                                preemption is necessary. If a preemption is
 *                                necessary it will update the linkage
 *                                accordingly and cause scheduled to be called
 *                                (either with an IPI or need_resched). It is
 *                                safe to call gsnedf_job_arrival(T) if T's
 *                                next job has not been actually released yet
 *                                (releast time in the future). T will be put
 *                                on the release queue in that case.
 *
 * job_completion(T)		- Take care of everything that needs to be done
 *                                to prepare T for its next release and place
 *                                it in the right queue with
 *                                gsnedf_job_arrival().
 *
 *
 * When we now that T is linked to CPU then link_task_to_cpu(NULL, CPU) is
 * equivalent to unlink(T). Note that if you unlink a task from a CPU none of
 * the functions will automatically propagate pending task from the ready queue
 * to a linked task. This is the job of the calling function ( by means of
 * __take_ready).
