Current __migrate_task() returns 0 in these cases:
!cpu_active(dest_cpu):
hotplug subsystem's responsibility to migrate it
!cpumask_test_cpu(dest_cpu, tsk_cpus_allowed(p)):
newer set_cpus_allowed_ptr()'s responsibility
In these cases, current set_cpus_allowed_ptr() doesn't have the responsibility,
I don't think -EAGAIN is proper here since "-EAGAIN" asks the caller to do it
again.
