sched_ext: Fix lock imbalance in dispatch_to_local_dsq()

[ Upstream commit 1626e5ef0b00386a4fd083fa7c46c8edbd75f9b4 ]

While performing the rq locking dance in dispatch_to_local_dsq(), we may
trigger the following lock imbalance condition, in particular when
multiple tasks are rapidly changing CPU affinity (i.e., running a
`stress-ng --race-sched 0`):

[   13.413579] =====================================

This happens because dispatch_to_local_dsq() is racing with
dispatch_dequeue() and, when the latter wins, we incorrectly assume that
the task has been moved to dst_rq.

Fix by properly tracking the currently locked rq.
