sched: Fix TASK_WAKING & loadaverage breakage

Fix this:

top - 21:54:00 up  2:59,  1 user,  load average: 432512.33, 426421.74, 417432.74

Which happens because we now set TASK_WAKING before activate_task().

Spread out activate_task() in two parts - this is also
a micro-optimization as try_to_wake_up() is one of the
hottest path.
