Subject: [PATCH v2 1/1] x86/resctrl: fix task closid/rmid update race

When determining whether running tasks need to be interrupted due to a
closid/rmid change, it was possible for the task in question to migrate
or wake up concurrently without observing the updated values.

This was because stores updating the closid and rmid in the task
structure could reorder with the loads in task_curr() and task_cpu().
Similar reordering also impacted resctrl_sched_in(), where reading the
updated values could reorder with prior stores to t->on_cpu.

Instead, when moving a single task, use task_call_func() to serialize
updates to the closid and rmid fields in the task_struct with context
switch.

When deleting a group, just update the MSRs on all CPUs rather than
calling task_call_func() on every task in a potentially long list while
read-locking the tasklist_lock.
