Actually the new way how the scheduler handles set_cpus_allowed() makes it
superflous to call that stuff at all.

All scheduler classes except deadline merily call set_cpus_allowed_common()
and deadline does not do the 'change root domain' dance either.

So we can simplify the whole business a lot.
