[PATCH v2 3/4] sched/rt: use put_task_struct_atomic_safe() to avoid potential splat

[Wander Lairson Costa]

rto_push_irq_work_func() is called in hardirq context, and it calls
push_rt_task(), which calls put_task_struct().

If the kernel is compiled with PREEMPT_RT and put_task_struct() reaches
zero usage count, it triggers a splat because __put_task_struct()
indirectly acquires sleeping locks.

The put_task_struct() call pairs with an earlier get_task_struct(),
which makes the probability of the usage count reaches zero pretty
low. In any case, let's play safe and use the atomic safe version.
