If migrate_enable() is called while a task is preparing to sleep
(state != TASK_RUNNING), that triggers a debug check in stop_one_cpu().
Explicitly reset state to acknowledge that we're accepting the spurious
wakeup.

Do you have an example for this? I'm not too sure if we are not using a
state by doing this. Actually we were losing it and get yelled at.  We do:
|rt_spin_unlock()
|{
|         rt_spin_lock_fastunlock();
|         migrate_enable();
|}

So save the state as part of the locking process and lose it as part of
migrate_enable() if the CPU mask was changed. I *think* we need to
preserve that state until after the migration to the other CPU.
 			sleeping_lock_inc();
 			stop_one_cpu(task_cpu(p), migration_cpu_stop, &arg);
 			sleeping_lock_dec();
