The patch 9 is simpler if less places modify loop_entry field.
The loop deleted by this patch does not affect correctness, but is a
performance optimization. However, measurements on selftests and
sched_ext programs show that this optimization is unnecessary:
- at most 2 steps are done in get_loop_entry();
- most of the time 0 or 1 steps are done in get_loop_entry().

Measured using "do-not-submit" patches from here:
