sched/core: Use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() in move_queued_task()/task_rq_lock()

move_queued_task() synchronizes with task_rq_lock() as follows:

	move_queued_task()		task_rq_lock()

	[S] ->on_rq = MIGRATING		[L] rq = task_rq()
	WMB (__set_task_cpu())		ACQUIRE (rq->lock);
	[S] ->cpu = new_cpu		[L] ->on_rq

where "[L] rq = task_rq()" is ordered before "ACQUIRE (rq->lock)" by an
address dependency and, in turn, "ACQUIRE (rq->lock)" is ordered before
"[L] ->on_rq" by the ACQUIRE itself.

Use READ_ONCE() to load ->cpu in task_rq() (c.f., task_cpu()) to honor
this address dependency.  Also, mark the accesses to ->cpu and ->on_rq
with READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() to comply with the LKMM.
