commit 386ef214c3c6ab111d05e1790e79475363abaa05 upstream.
try_steal_cookie() looks at task_struct::cpus_mask to decide if the task could be moved to `this' CPU. It ignores that the task might be in a migration disabled section while not on the CPU. In this case the task must not be moved otherwise per-CPU assumption are broken.
Use is_cpu_allowed(), as suggested by Peter Zijlstra, to decide if the a task can be moved.
