sched/numa: Reset scan rate whenever task moves across nodes
...
Currently task scan rate is reset when NUMA balancer migrates the task
to a different node. If NUMA balancer initiates a swap, reset is only
applicable to the task that initiates the swap. Similarly no scan rate
reset is done if the task is migrated across nodes by traditional load
balancer.
Instead move the scan reset to the migrate_task_rq. This ensures the
task moved out of its preferred node, either gets back to its preferred
node quickly or finds a new preferred node. Doing so, would be fair to
all tasks migrating across nodes.
