sched: Remove lockdep check in sched_move_task()

Browse Source 
sched_move_task() is the only interface to change sched_task_group:
cpu_cgrp_subsys methods and autogroup_move_group() use it.

Everything is synchronized by task_rq_lock(), so cpu_cgroup_attach()
is ordered with other users of sched_move_task(). This means we do no
need RCU here: if we've dereferenced a tg here, the .attach method
hasn't been called for it yet.

Thus, we should pass "true" to task_css_check() to silence lockdep
warnings.
