x86/resctrl: Use task_curr() instead of task_struct->on_cpu to prevent unnecessary IPI
James reported in [1] that there could be two tasks running on the same CPU with task_struct->on_cpu set. Using task_struct->on_cpu as a test if a task is running on a CPU may thus match the old task for a CPU while the scheduler is running and IPI it unnecessarily. task_curr() is the correct helper to use. While doing so move the #ifdef check of the CONFIG_SMP symbol to be a C conditional used to determine if this helper should be used to ensure the code is always checked for correctness by the compiler.
