sched: Improve try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() 

Clarify and tighten try_invoke_on_locked_down_task().

Basically the function calls @func under task_rq_lock(), except it
avoids taking rq->lock when possible.

This makes calling @func unconditional (the function will get renamed
in a later patch to remove the try).
