and patch 6 adds this line here:
+ env->prog->aux->priv_stack_requested = false;

which makes the above hard to reason about.

I think the root of the problem is the dual meaning of
the priv_stack_requested flag.
On one side it's a way for sched-ext to ask bpf core to enable priv stack,
and on the other side it's a request from bpf core to bpf jit
to allocate it.

I think it's better to split these two conditions.
Extra bool is cheap.

How about 'bool priv_stack_requested' will be used by sched-ext only
and patch 6 largely stays as-is.

While patch 1 drops the introduction of priv_stack_requested flag.
Instead 'bool jits_use_priv_stack' is introduced in the patch 2
and used by JITs to allocate priv stack.

I know we use 'jit_requested' to tell JITs to jit it,
so we can bike shed on alternative ways to name these two flags.
