sched: fix crash on ia64, introduce task_current()
Some services (e.g. sched_setscheduler(), rt_mutex_setprio() and sched_move_task()) must handle a given task differently in case it's the 'rq->curr' task on its run-queue. The task_running() interface is not suitable for determining such tasks for platforms with one of the following options: #define __ARCH_WANT_UNLOCKED_CTXSW #define __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW Due to the fact that it makes use of 'p->oncpu == 1' as a criterion but such a task is not necessarily 'rq->curr'.
