The 'nr_running != 0' check is _not_ enough, due to the fact that
'current' is not within the tree. Generic paths are ok (e.g. schedule()

migration_call() -> CPU_DEAD_FROZEN -> migrate_dead_tasks()... if
'current' == rq->idle, no problems.. if it's one of the SCHED_NORMAL
tasks (or imagine, some other use-cases in the future -- i.e. we should
not make outer world dependent on internal details of sched_fair class)
-- it may be "Houston, we've got a problem" case.

it's +16 bytes to the ".text". Another variant is to make 'run_node' the
first data member of 'struct sched_entity' but an additional check (se !
