Pfair: improve robustness of suspensions
This patch fixes two crash or hang bugs related to suspensions in Pfair. 1) When a job was not present at the end of its last subtask, then its linked_on field was not cleared. This confused the scheduler when it later resumed. Fix: clear the field. 2) Just testing for linked_on == NO_CPU is insufficient in the wake_up path to determine whether a task should be added to the ready queue. If the task remained linked and then was "preempted" at a later quantum boundary, then it already is in the ready queue and nothing is required. Fix: encode need to requeue in task_rt(t)->flags.
