sched, autogroup: Stop going ahead if autogroup is disabled
when autogroup is disable from the beginning, sched_autogroup_create_attach() autogroup_move_group() <== 1 sched_move_task() <== 2 task_move_group_fair() set_task_rq() task_group() autogroup_task_group() We go the whole path without doing anything useful. Then stop going further if autogroup is disabled. But there will be a race window between 1 and 2, in which sysctl_sched_autogroup_enabled is enabled. This issue will be toke by following patch.
