sched_ext: Fix is_bpf_migration_disabled() false negative on non-PREEMPT_RCU

commit 0c4a59df370bea245695c00aaae6ae75747139bd upstream.

Since commit 8e4f0b1ebcf2 ("bpf: use rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate() for
trampoline.c"), the BPF prolog (__bpf_prog_enter) calls migrate_disable()
only when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is enabled, via rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate().
Without CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU, the prolog never touches migration_disabled,
so migration_disabled == 1 always means the task is truly
migration-disabled regardless of whether it is the current task.

The old unconditional p == current check was a false negative in this
case, potentially allowing a migration-disabled task to be dispatched to
a remote CPU and triggering scx_error in task_can_run_on_remote_rq().

Only apply the p == current disambiguation when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is
enabled, where the ambiguity with the BPF prolog still exists.
