sched/core: Provide a pointer to the valid CPU mask

In commit:

  4b53a3412d ("sched/core: Remove the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper")

the tsk_nr_cpus_allowed() wrapper was removed. There was not
much difference in !RT but in RT we used this to implement
migrate_disable(). Within a migrate_disable() section the CPU mask is
restricted to single CPU while the "normal" CPU mask remains untouched.

As an alternative implementation Ingo suggested to use:

	struct task_struct {
		const cpumask_t		*cpus_ptr;
		cpumask_t		cpus_mask;
        };
with
	t->cpus_ptr = &t->cpus_mask;

In -RT we then can switch the cpus_ptr to:

	t->cpus_ptr = &cpumask_of(task_cpu(p));

in a migration disabled region. The rules are simple:

 - Code that 'uses' ->cpus_allowed would use the pointer.
 - Code that 'modifies' ->cpus_allowed would use the direct mask.
