kthreads: simplify migration_thread() exit path

Browse source 
Now that kthread_stop() can be used even if the task has already exited,
we can kill the "wait_to_die:" loop in migration_thread().  But we must
pin rq->migration_thread after creation.

Actually, I don't think CPU_UP_CANCELED or CPU_DEAD should wait for
->migration_thread exit.  Perhaps we can simplify this code a bit more.
migration_call() can set ->should_stop and forget about this thread.  But
we need a new helper in kthred.c for that.
