Expanded in this:

Add some typical sched-debug output to dl_rq(s) and some
schedstats to -deadline tasks. This helps spotting problems
with queue and dequeue operations (incorrect ordering) and
gives hints about system status (one can have an idea if the
system is overloaded, if tasks are missing their deadlines
and the entity of such anomalies).

Thanks,
