Combine the task_on_rq_migrating() check and the sched_mm_cid_migrate_to()
invocation into a single conditional block. This removes a redundant flag
check and slightly reduces the instruction count in a hot path.

- This is a slight optimization and code cleanup, please let me know if you'd prefer to keep the current structure.
- Thanks

I think "ENQUEUE_MIGRATED" can be individually set without
task_on_rq_migrating() in the wakeup path via ttwu_do_activate().
In that case "p->on_rq", goes from "0" to "TASK_ON_RQ_QUEUED" directly
without going through an intermediate "TASK_ON_RQ_MIGRATING" but
"ENQUEUE_MIGRATED" will be set if "p->task_cpu" was changed during
wakeup.
