sched/fair: Modify the comment about lock assumptions in migrate_task_rq_fair()

The comment describing migrate_task_rq_fair() says that the caller
should hold p->pi_lock. But in some cases the caller can hold
task_rq(p)->lock instead of p->pi_lock. So the comment is broken and
this patch fixes it.
