[PATCH 1/4] sched: Optimize fork() paths

[Peter Zijlstra]

The task_fork_fair() callback already calls __set_task_cpu() and takes
rq->lock.

If we move the sched_class::task_fork callback in sched_fork() under
the existing p->pi_lock, right after its set_task_cpu() call, we can
avoid doing two such calls and omit the IRQ disabling on the rq->lock.

Change to __set_task_cpu() to skip the migration bits, this is a new
task, not a migration.
