sched: Sanitize fork() handling

commit cd29fe6f2637cc2ccbda5ac65f5332d6bf5fa3c6 upstream

Currently we try to do task placement in wake_up_new_task() after we do
the load-balance pass in sched_fork(). This yields complicated semantics
in that we have to deal with tasks on different RQs and the
set_task_cpu() calls in copy_process() and sched_fork()

Rename ->task_new() to ->task_fork() and call it from sched_fork()
before the balancing, this gives the policy a clear point to place the
task.
