sched: Fix/clarify set_task_cpu() locking rules
Sergey reported a CONFIG_PROVE_RCU warning in push_rt_task where
set_task_cpu() was called with both relevant rq->locks held, which
should be sufficient for running tasks since holding its rq->lock
will serialize against sched_move_task().
Update the comments and fix the task_group() lockdep test.
