sched: Remove lockdep check in sched_move_task()
commit f7b8a47da17c9ee4998f2ca2018fcc424e953c0e upstream. sched_move_task() is the only interface to change sched_task_group: cpu_cgrp_subsys methods and autogroup_move_group() use it. Everything is synchronized by task_rq_lock(), so cpu_cgroup_attach() is ordered with other users of sched_move_task(). This means we do no need RCU here: if we've dereferenced a tg here, the .attach method hasn't been called for it yet. Thus, we should pass "true" to task_css_check() to silence lockdep warnings.
