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.
