Subject: [PATCH] sched/fair: Don't balance migration disabled tasks

From: Yicong Yang <yangyicong@...ilicon.com>

On load balance we didn't check whether the candidate task is migration
disabled or not, this may hit the WARN_ON in set_task_cpu() since the
migration disabled tasks are expected to run on their current CPU.
We've run into this case several times on our server:
