rcu: apply RCU protection to wake_affine()
The task_group() function returns a pointer that must be protected by either RCU, the ->alloc_lock, or the cgroup lock (see the rcu_dereference_check() in task_subsys_state(), which is invoked by task_group()). The wake_affine() function currently does none of these, which means that a concurrent update would be within its rights to free the structure returned by task_group(). Because wake_affine() uses this structure only to compute load-balancing heuristics, there is no reason to acquire either of the two locks. Therefore, this commit introduces an RCU read-side critical section that starts before the first call to task_group() and ends after the last use of the "tg" pointer returned from task_group(). Thanks to Li Zefan for pointing out the need to extend the RCU read-side critical section from that proposed by the original patch.
