sched/fair: Fix external p->on_rq users
Sean noted that ever since commit 152e11f6df29 ("sched/fair: Implement
delayed dequeue") KVM's preemption notifiers have started
mis-classifying preemption vs blocking.
Notably p->on_rq is no longer sufficient to determine if a task is
runnable or blocked -- the aforementioned commit introduces tasks that
remain on the runqueue even through they will not run again, and
should be considered blocked for many cases.
Add the task_is_runnable() helper to classify things and audit all
external users of the p->on_rq state. Also add a few comments.
