sched: balance RT task resched only on runqueue

Sripathi Kodi reported a crash in the -rt kernel:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435674

this is due to a place that can reschedule a task without holding
the tasks runqueue lock.  This was caused by the RT balancing code
that pulls RT tasks to the current run queue and will reschedule the
current task.

There's a slight chance that the pulling of the RT tasks will release
the current runqueue's lock and retake it (in the double_lock_balance).
During this time that the runqueue is released, the current task can
migrate to another runqueue.

In the prio_changed_rt code, after the pull, if the current task is of
lesser priority than one of the RT tasks pulled, resched_task is called
on the current task. If the current task had migrated in that small
window, resched_task will be called without holding the runqueue lock
for the runqueue that the task is on.

This race condition also exists in the mainline kernel and this patch
adds a check to make sure the task hasn't migrated before calling
resched_task.
