Subject: [PATCH 06/27] sched: implement try_to_wake_up_local()

Implement try_to_wake_up_local().  try_to_wake_up_local() is similar
to try_to_wake_up() but it assumes the caller has this_rq() locked and
the target task is bound to this_rq().  try_to_wake_up_local() can be
called from wakeup and sleep scheduler notifiers.
