Some kfuncs provided by sched_ext may need to operate on a struct rq, but they can be invoked from various contexts, specifically, different scx callbacks. While some of these callbacks are invoked with a particular rq already locked, others are not. This makes it impossible for a kfunc to reliably determine whether it's safe to access a given rq, triggering potential bugs or unsafe behaviors, see for example [1]. To address this, track the currently locked rq whenever a sched_ext callback is invoked via SCX_CALL_OP*(). This allows kfuncs that need to operate on an arbitrary rq to retrieve the currently locked one and apply the appropriate action as needed.
