commit f3f08c3acfb8860e07a22814a344e83c99ad7398 upstream.
While fixing migration disabled task handling, 32966821574c ("sched_ext: Fix migration disabled handling in targeted dispatches") assumed that a migration disabled task's ->cpus_ptr would only have the pinned CPU. While this is eventually true for migration disabled tasks that are switched out, ->cpus_ptr update is performed by migrate_disable_switch() which is called right before context_switch() in __scheduler(). However, the task is enqueued earlier during pick_next_task() via put_prev_task_scx(), so there is a race window where another CPU can see the task on a DSQ.
If the CPU tries to dispatch the migration disabled task while in that window, task_allowed_on_cpu() will succeed and task_can_run_on_remote_rq() will subsequently trigger SCHED_WARN(is_migration_disabled()).

Fix it by converting the SCHED_WARN() back to a regular failure path. Also, perform the migration disabled test before task_allowed_on_cpu() test so that BPF schedulers which fail to handle migration disabled tasks can be noticed easily.
While at it, adjust scx_ops_error() message for !task_allowed_on_cpu() case for brevity and consistency.
