intel_rdt_sched_in() must be called with preemption disabled because the
function accesses percpu variables (pqr_state and closid).

If a task moves itself via move_myself() preemption is enabled, which
violates the calling convention and can result in incorrect closid
selection when the task gets preempted or migrated.

Add the required protection and a comment about the calling convention.
