[$] Improved load balancing with machine learning

Description:
The extensible scheduler class ("sched_ext") allows the loading of a custom 
CPU scheduler into the kernel
as a set of BPF functions; it was merged for the 6.12 kernel release.
Since then, sched_ext has enabled a wide range of experimentation with
scheduling algorithms.  At the 2025 Open
Source Summit North America , Ching-Chun ("Jim") Huang presented work
that has been done to apply (local) machine learning to the problem of
scheduling processes on complex systems.
