cpuset: Allow setscheduler regardless of manipulated task

When we migrate a task between two cgroups, one of the checks is a
verification whether we can modify task's scheduler settings
(cap_task_setscheduler()).

An implicit migration occurs also when enabling a controller on the
unified hierarchy (think of parent to child migration). The
aforementioned check may be problematic if the caller of the migration
(enabling a controller) has no permissions over migrated tasks.
For instance, a user's cgroup that ends up running a process of a
different user. Although cgroup permissions are configured favorably,
the enablement fails due to the foreign process [1].

Change the behavior by relaxing the permissions check on the unified
hierarchy when no effective change would happen.
This is in accordance with unified hierarchy attachment behavior when
permissions of the source to target cgroups are decisive whereas the
migrated task is opaque (as opposed to more restrictive check in
__cgroup1_procs_write()).

Notice that foreign task's affinity may still be modified if the user
can modify destination cgroup's cpuset attributes
(update_tasks_cpumask() does no permissions check). The permissions
check could thus be skipped on v2 even when affinity changes. Stay
conservative in this patch though.
