Subject: [PATCH v3 2/3] x86/resctrl: Factor work to update task CLOSID/RMID

Functions that update a task's CLOSID or RMID must determine whether the
task is concurrently running to determine whether the task needs to be
interrupted.

Negotiating the race conditions involved is nuanced, so spare new types
of task group-moving functionality from needing to understand the fine
details.

Factor the task_struct::{closid,rmid} update along with the synchronized
concurrently-running-task check from rdt_move_group_tasks() into a new
rdt_move_one_task() helper. Use this helper in __rdtgroup_move_task() as
well.

This should not result in any functional change.
