Subject: [PATCH] sched_rt: fix overload bug on rt group scheduling

Fixes an easily triggerable BUG() when setting process affinities.

Make sure to count the number of migratable tasks in the same place:
the root rt_rq. Otherwise the number doesn't make sense and we'll hit
the BUG in set_cpus_allowed_rt().

Also, make sure we only count tasks, not groups (this is probably
already taken care of by the fact that rt_se->nr_cpus_allowed will be 0
for groups, but be more explicit)
