sched: fix race in schedule()

Fix a hard to trigger crash seen in the -rt kernel that also affects
the vanilla scheduler.

There is a race condition between schedule() and some dequeue/enqueue
functions; rt_mutex_setprio(), __setscheduler() and sched_move_task().

When scheduling to idle, idle_balance() is called to pull tasks from
other busy processor. It might drop the rq lock. It means that those 3
functions encounter on_rq=0 and running=1. The current task should be
put when running.

Here is a possible scenario:

   CPU0                               CPU1
    |                              schedule()
    |                              ->deactivate_task()
    |                              ->idle_balance()
    |                              -->load_balance_newidle()
rt_mutex_setprio()                     |
    |                              --->double_lock_balance()
    *get lock                          *rel lock
    * on_rq=0, ruuning=1               |
    * sched_class is changed           |
    *rel lock                          *get lock
    :                                  |
                                       :
                                   ->put_prev_task_rt()
                                   ->pick_next_task_fair()
                                       => panic

The current process of CPU1(P1) is scheduling. Deactivated P1, and the
scheduler looks for another process on other CPU's runqueue because CPU1
will be idle. idle_balance(), load_balance_newidle() and
double_lock_balance() are called and double_lock_balance() could drop
the rq lock. On the other hand, CPU0 is trying to boost the priority of
P1. The result of boosting only P1's prio and sched_class are changed to
RT. The sched entities of P1 and P1's group are never put. It makes
cfs_rq invalid, because the cfs_rq has curr and no leaf, but
pick_next_task_fair() is called, then the kernel panics.
